Abstract

The invention discloses a low-complexity beam angle estimation device and method based on power detection. The device comprises an array antenna, a phase shifter, a power combiner, a power measurement unit, an angle estimation unit and the like. Different from the traditional angle estimation technology based on spatial spectrum estimation, the angle of the beam is estimated by detecting the power of the received signal through the two antenna array elements. Only the signal power needs to be detected, and operation such as solving of a correlation matrix in a traditional method does not need to be used so that the method has extremely low complexity. Meanwhile, the device has strong anti-noise capability, and simulation and actual test results show that the angle estimation method provided by the invention has relatively high precision and robustness. Compared with the traditional method, the method has the remarkable advantage that information corresponding to each array element does not need to be obtained, and thus the method is suitable for wireless systems of analog beamforming and hybrid beamforming frameworks which are widely used at present.

Description

technical field [0001] The following description relates to the field of wireless communication technology and the field of radar signal processing. More specifically, the following description relates to low-complexity beam angle estimation techniques based on power detection. Background technique [0002] In order to cope with people's rapidly increasing requirements for communication rates, the fifth generation mobile (5G) communication system has emerged as the times require. Among them, multi-antenna beamforming and beamforming technologies have received extensive attention because they can efficiently realize space division multiplexing. A key point of this technology is how to quickly and efficiently obtain the angle information of the incident beam at the receiving end to adjust the phase of the antenna array elements. [0003] DOA (Direction of Arrival) estimation technology has been widely studied and applied in many fields such as radar signal processing. Among...
