The invention discloses a method for
matrix element distance optimization and
frequency domain multi target frequency and direction measurement of
wideband phased arrays, for realizing the direction measurement of multiple targets having
narrow band coherence and irrelevance of a
wideband receiver, resolving the contradiction between the direction measurement resolution and unambiguous direction measurement of
sparse array, and realizing more accurate target detection under a certain channel error. The method comprises the steps of: first using uneven array, using genetic algorism to optimize the distance of array elements to satisfy the higher direction measurement resolution and high direction measurement accuracy of spatial unambiguous condition; based on the optimized array, realizing the
frequency domain multi target frequency and direction measurement algorism as a DOA evaluation algorism which processes
frequency domain accumulation, frequency domain check and frequency measurement for the data of each
array element channel and realizes frequency automatic match. The algorism adopts array optimization, frequency domain peak snapshot frequency and direction measurement joint algorism. The invention can be applied for the multi
narrow band target accurate frequency and direction measurement of
wideband receivers in the airborne and
satellite-borne electronic reconnaissance.
