In order to improve the angle measurement performance of a coprime linear array, this paper proposes a novel direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm for a coprime linear array based on the multiple invariance estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (MI-ESPRIT) and a lookup table method. The proposed algorithm does not require a spatial spectrum search and uses a lookup table to solve ambiguity, which reduces the computational complexity. To fully use the subarray elements, the DOA estimation precision is higher compared with existing algorithms. Moreover, the algorithm avoids the matching error when multiple signals exist by using the relationship between the signal subspace of two subarrays. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Coherent source localization is a common problem in signal processing. In this paper, a sparse representation method is considered to deal with two-dimensional (2D) direction of arrival (DOA) estimation for coherent sources with a uniform circular array (UCA). Considering that objective function requires sparsity in the spatial dimension but does not require sparsity in time, singular value decomposition (SVD) is employed to reduce computational complexity and ℓ2 norm is utilized to renew objective function. After the new objective function is constructed to evaluate residual and sparsity, a second-order cone (SOC) programming is employed to solve convex optimization problem and obtain 2D spatial spectrum. Simulations show that the proposed method can deal with the case of coherent source localization, which has higher resolution than 2D MUSIC method and does not need to estimate the number of coherent sources in advance.

Recently, the direction of arrival estimation with co-prime arrays has gradually been applied in underwater scenarios because of its significant advantages over traditional uniform linear arrays. Despite the advantages of co-prime arrays, the spatial spectra obtained directly from conventional beamforming can be degraded by grating lobes due to the sparse spatial sampling in passive sensing applications, which will seriously deteriorate the estimation performance. In this paper, capon beamforming is applied to a co-prime sensor array as a pretreatment before high-resolution direction of arrival (DOA) estimation methods. The amplitudes extracted from the beam-domain outputs of two subarrays and the phases extracted from the cross-spectrum of the spatial spectrum are exploited to suppress the spurious peaks in beam patterns and eliminate ambiguities. Consequently, interference can be further mitigated, and the performance of high-resolution DOA methods will be guaranteed. Simulations show that the method proposed can improve the reliability and accuracy of DOA estimation with great value in practice.

Coprime array isAsparse array composed of two uniform linear arrays with different spacing. When the two subarrays are inAnon-coherent distributed configuration, the direction of arrival (DOA) method based on the covariance analysis of the complete coprime array is no longer effective. According to the essential attribute that the distance between the elements of two subarrays can eliminate the angle ambiguity, based on the mathematical derivation, Aspatial spectral product DOA estimation method for incoherent distributed coprime arrays is proposed. Firstly, the spatial spectrum of each subarray is calculated by using the snapshot data of each subarray, and then the DOA estimation is realized by multiplying the spatial spectrum of each subarray. The simulation results show that the estimation accuracy and angle resolution of the present method are better than those of the traditional ambiguity resolution methods, and the estimation performance is good in the mutual coupling and low SNR environment, with the good adaptability and stability. Moreover, by using the flexibility of distributed array, the matching error is effectively solved through the rotation angle.

This paper proposes a novel two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) estimation with optimized sparse sampling array, which is combined with Accelerated Proximal Gradient singular value thresholding(APG) and Multiple Signal Classification(MUSIC). Firstly, a signal model of 2D-DOA estimation in sparse array is established, which is proved to satisfy low rank feature and NULL Space Property(NSP). Then, Genetic algorithm (GA) is applied to a sparse sampling array to optimize the performance of matrix completion(MC). Finally, MUSIC combined with APG is studied to recover received signal matrix and estimate the direction of arrival. The results of computer simulation demonstrate that compared with conventional 2D-DOA algorithms, the proposed algorithm reduces the number of array elements needed dramatically and effectively lowers the average sidelobes level of spatial spectrum.

Vector-hydrophone can simultaneously measure acoustic pressure and orthogonal components of the particle velocity. The 180o ambiguity in DOA estimation can be eliminated using information obtained by vector hydrophone array. Multiple signal classification algorithm is a method that takes the eigen-decomposition of data co-variance matrix to obtain the estimation of signal spatial spectrum. The two-dimensional DOA of acoustic sources is estimated based on multiple signal classification algorithm using the vector-hydrophone uniform linear array. Simulation results show that better DOA resolution performance can be obtained from vector hydrophones. Furthermore, the paper takes the de-correlation of correlated sources using spatial smoothness technology to obtain perfect performance of two-dimensional DOA estimation.
