Problems solved by technology

The current solution to this kind of problem is to finely subdivide the spatial grid. The disadvantages are: firstly, the target cannot be guaranteed to be on the discrete grid, and the improvement of estimation accuracy is very limited; Greatly improve the computational complexity of the algorithm
If the amplitude and phase errors that may exist in the sensor are considered in practical applications, the existing algorithms cannot obtain accurate angle estimates
[0004] Traditional DoA estimation is based on an ideal situation, that is, it does not consider the possible errors of the sensor in practical applications, resulting in limitations in its performance

Abstract

The invention provides a joint estimation method of sensor amplitude and phase error and target arrival angle. Firstly, the relationship between steering vector and DoA rough estimation and off-grid error is established according to the first-order Taylor expansion, and the noise subspace in the multiple signal classification algorithm is used. Orthogonality with the signal subspace, a multi-variable optimization problem whose parameters are amplitude-phase error and off-grid error are constructed. Through the alternate iteration of closed-form solutions of the sub-problems, the error compensation of the sensor and the accurate estimation of DoA are finally realized. While realizing sensor self-calibration, the invention has the advantages of super-resolution angle estimation of MUSIC algorithm, and simultaneously solves the off-grid problem existing in the spectrum search process, which can greatly improve the accuracy and robustness of DoA estimation in practical applications. .

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a joint estimation method of sensor amplitude and phase error and target arrival angle, and belongs to the technical field of array signal processing. Background technique [0002] The estimation of the target angle of arrival based on the antenna array is widely used in many fields such as radar, sonar, wireless communication and imaging. The working state of the sensors in the array directly affects the accuracy of angle estimation. In practical applications, the antenna array will always be affected by uncertain factors and generate errors, such as argument and phase errors, mutual coupling between antennas, and antenna position errors, etc., which directly lead to the performance of traditional angle estimation algorithms. fall or even fail.
