The present invention discloses an underdetermined parameter joint
estimation method based on high-order statistics and non-uniform arrays, including: obtaining single-sample frequency-domain
channel data; calculating the fourth-order cumulant
diagonal slice matrix by using the forward-backward
smoothing technique, constructing a time-
delay estimation spatial spectrum by using the orthogonal propagation operator method, and searching for the spectral peak to obtain the time-
delay estimation value; calculating the time-
delay domain filtering vector and separating the frequency-domain
channel data corresponding to each time-delay estimation value; calculating the high-order cumulant matrix by using the frequency-domain
channel data corresponding to each time-delay estimation value, constructing an angle-of-arrival estimation
spatial spectrum, and searching for the spectral peak to obtain the angle-of-arrival estimation value; using the already estimated and automatically paired time-delay estimation value and angle-of-arrival estimation value to vectorize the channel data, and estimating the
complex gain value of the multipath
signal based on the
least squares principle. The present invention only requires a
single sample, can perform high-precision and high-accuracy multi-parameter joint estimation in an underdetermined
scenario, and has a large estimation degree of freedom, high estimation accuracy, small computational complexity, and high robustness to
noise.
