Abstract

The invention discloses a method for carrying out low-complexity angle estimation by using a co-prime linear array. The method comprises the steps of: firstly, carrying out vectorization processing ona covariance matrix of an array received signal, deleting redundant rows and intercepting a continuous array element part to obtain a received signal of a virtual uniform linear array with an array element interval of half of lambda; then carrying out DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) on the virtual received signal and finding out positions of K maximum peak values (K represents an information source number), so that initial estimation of a DOA (Direction Of Arrival) can be obtained; and finally, carrying out DFT on the virtual received signal subjected to phase rotation, searching a rotationphase eta in a small range, respectively finding out a rotation phase which enables the K peak values to be shrunk to the maximum, and obtaining accurate estimation of the DOA hereby. According to theinvention, DFT and a DOA estimation problem of the co-prime linear array are combined, the virtual received signal does not need to be subjected to decorrelation processing, a relatively high space freedom degree can be obtained, and meanwhile, the method has low calculation complexity and high estimation accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of space spectrum estimation, in particular to a method for low-complexity angle estimation using a coprime linear array. Background technique [0002] At present, an array antenna layout called a coprime array has been paid attention to. This array structure breaks through the half-wavelength limitation of the traditional antenna array element spacing, which greatly expands the antenna aperture and improves the performance of angle estimation. . [0003] There are two methods of angle estimation using coprime linear arrays: defuzzification and virtualization. Among them, the defuzzification method can obtain better estimation performance than the uniform linear array, but the method of using two sub-arrays for angle estimation makes the spatial degree of freedom greatly reduced. The virtualization method can obtain a higher degree of spatial freedom than the actual number of array elements, which greatly increases ...
