The performance of a direction-finding system is significantly degraded by the imperfection of an array. In this paper, the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation problem is investigated in the uniform linear array (ULA) system with the unknown mutual coupling (MC) effect. The system model with MC effect is formulated. Then, by exploiting the signal sparsity in the spatial domain, a compressed-sensing (CS)-based system model is proposed with the MC coefficients, and the problem of DOA estimation is converted into that of a sparse reconstruction. To solve the reconstruction problem efficiently, a novel DOA estimation method, named sparse-based DOA estimation with unknown MC effect (SDMC), is proposed, where both the sparse signal and the MC coefficients are estimated iteratively. Simulation results show that the proposed method can achieve better performance of DOA estimation in the scenario with MC effect than the state-of-the-art methods, and improve the DOA estimation performance about 31.64 % by reducing the MC effect by about 4 dB.

Effectiveness And Efficiency

A novel direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation method is proposed to cope with the scenario where a number of uncorrelated and coherent narrowband sources simultaneously impinge on the far-field of a uniform linear array (ULA). In the proposed method, the DOAs of uncorrelated sources are firstly estimated by utilizing the property of the moduli of eigenvalues of the DOA matrix. Afterwards, the contributions of uncorrelated sources and the interference of noise are eliminated completely by exploiting the improved spatial differencing technique and only the coherent components remain in the spatial differencing matrix. Finally, the remaining coherent sources can be resolved by performing the improved spatial smoothing scheme on the spatial differencing matrix. The presented method can resolve more number of sources than that of the array elements and distinguish the uncorrelated and coherent sources that come from the same direction as well as improving the estimation performance. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.

In this paper, we investigate the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation problem of noncircular signals for coprime linear array (CLA). From the perspective of the CLA as extracted from a filled uniform linear array (ULA), a noncircular root-MUSIC algorithm is proposed to estimate the DOA which can avoid the spectral peak search and lower the computational complexity. Due to the noncircular characteristic, the proposed algorithm enables to resolve more sources than sensors. Meanwhile, the proposed algorithm has better angle estimation performance than some conventional DOA estimation algorithms. Numerical simulation results illustrate the performance of the proposed method.

This paper considers the problem of estimating the direction of arrival (DOA) for the both incoherent and coherent signals from narrowband sources, located in the far field in the case of uniform linear array sensors. Three different methods are analyzed. Specifically, these methods are Music, Root-Music and ESPRIT. The pros and cons of these methods are identified and compared in light of different viewpoints. The performance of the three methods is evaluated, analytically, when possible, and by Matlab simulation. This paper can be a roadmap for beginners in understanding the basic concepts of DOA estimation issues, properties and performance.

In this paper, we address the angle estimation problem in linear array with some ill sensors (partially-well sensors), which only work well randomly. The output of the array will miss some values, and this can be regarded as a low-rank matrix completion problem due to the property that the number of sources is smaller than the number of the total sensors. The output of the array, which is corrupted by the missing values and the noise, can be complete via the Optspace method, and then the angles can be estimated according to the complete output. The proposed algorithm works well for the array with some ill sensors; moreover, it is suitable for non-uniform linear array. Simulation results illustrate performance of the algorithm.
