This paper proposes a switched-element direction finding (SEDF) system based Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation method for un-cooperative wideband Orthogonal Frequency Division Multi Linear Frequency Modulation (OFDM-LFM) radar signals. This method is designed to improve the problem that most DOA algorithms occupy numbers of channel and computational resources to handle the direction finding for wideband signals. Then, an iterative spatial parameter estimator is designed through deriving the analytical steering vector of the intercepted OFDM-LFM signal by the SEDF system, which can remarkably mitigate the dispersion effect that is caused by high chirp rate. Finally, the algorithm flow and numerical simulations are given to corroborate the feasibility and validity of our proposed DOA method.

Direction of arrival (DOA) estimation is of great interest due to its wide applications in sonar, radar and many other areas. However, the near-field interference is always presented in the received data, which may result in degradation of DOA estimation. An approach which can suppress the near-field interference and preserve the far-field signal desired by using a spatial matrix filter is proposed in this paper and some typical DOA estimation algorithms are adjusted to match the filtered data. Simulation results show that the approach can improve capability of DOA estimation under near-field inference efficiently.
