Problems solved by technology

[0005] The commonly used subspace decomposition algorithms with higher resolution for DOA estimation, such as the multiple signal classification algorithm (MUSIC) and the rotation invariant subspace algorithm (ESPRIT), all need to perform eigenvalue decomposition on the covariance matrix of the signal. According to the size of the eigenvalues, the signal subspace and the noise subspace are divided, and the estimation accuracy is greatly affected by the signal-to-noise ratio, and the estimation accuracy is poor in a low signal-to-noise ratio environment.
In the actual process, the signal covariance matrix is ​​replaced by the sampling covariance matrix. When the number of snapshots is small, subspace leakage is prone to occur, which affects the direction of arrival estimation.
Therefore, the estimation accuracy of the traditional direction of arrival estimation method is poor in the case of low signal-to-noise ratio and few snapshots

Embodiment Construction

[0039] In order to better illustrate the purpose and advantages of the present invention, the content of the invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0040] In order to verify the feasibility of the method, the array is placed in the XOY plane, and the angle between the projection of the incoming wave direction on the plane XOY and the positive semi-axis of the X axis is defined as the azimuth angle θ, and the counterclockwise is positive. Define the angle between the incoming wave direction and the normal of the X-Y plane as the pitch angle φ, there are 3 incident signals, and the incident angles (θ, φ) are (15°, 20°), (45°, 50°), (75°,80°). For the convenience of calculation, the included angle (α, β) between the incoming wave direction and the X-axis and Y-axis is used instead of (θ, φ) in the following formula, where cosα=cosθsinφ, cosβ=sinθsinφ.

Abstract

The invention discloses a two-dimensional direction of arrival estimation method for a nested array based L-shaped antenna array, and belongs to the field of array signal processing. The implementation method includes the following steps: constructing a nested array based L-shaped antenna array, calculating a cross-covariance matrix by using signals received by different sub arrays of the constructed L-shaped nested array; correcting the obtained cross-covariance matrix, performing vectorization on the corrected cross-covariance matrix to generate a virtual array, constructing a plurality of equivalent covariance matrices by using the virtual array, calculating the signal azimuth angle Theta and the pitch angle Phi by using the rotation invariance between different equivalent covariance matrices, and achieving multi-target and high-precision two-dimensional direction of arrival estimation with few snapshots at a low signal-to-noise ratio. The technical problem to be solved by the invention is to realize multi-target and high-precision two-dimensional direction of arrival estimation by using fewer array elements at a low signal-to-noise ratio and with few snapshots, and to solve related engineering technical problems by using two-dimensional direction of arrival estimation results.
