The PARAFAC-MUSIC algorithm is proposed to estimate the direction-of-arrival (DOA) of the targets with Doppler frequency in a monostatic MIMO radar system in this paper. To estimate the Doppler frequency, the PARAFAC (parallel factor) algorithm is firstly utilized in the proposed algorithm, and after the compensation of Doppler frequency, MUSIC (multiple signal classification) algorithm is applied to estimate the DOA. By these two steps, the DOA of moving targets can be estimated successfully. Simulation results show that the proposed PARAFAC-MUSIC algorithm has a higher accuracy than the PARAFAC algorithm and the MUSIC algorithm in DOA estimation.

In this paper, we investigate the problem of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for massive multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar, and propose a total array-based multiple signals classification (TA-MUSIC) algorithm for two-dimensional direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation with a coprime cubic array (CCA). Unlike the conventional multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm, the TA-MUSIC algorithm employs not only the auto-covariance matrix but also the mutual covariance matrix by stacking the received signals of two sub cubic arrays so that full degrees of freedom (DOFs) can be utilized. We verified that the phase ambiguity problem can be eliminated by employing the coprime property. Moreover, to achieve lower complexity, we explored the estimation of signal parameters via the rotational invariance technique (ESPRIT)-based multiple signal classification (E-MUSIC) algorithm, which uses a successive scheme to be computationally efficient. The Cramer–Rao bound (CRB) was taken as a theoretical benchmark for the lower boundary of the unbiased estimate. Finally, numerical simulations were conducted in order to demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithms.

This paper discussed the problem of two dimensional (2D) direction of arrival (DOA) estimation for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar. The minimum-redundancy linear array (MLRA) is introduced into the transmitting array and receiving array, which enables the high efficiency of the radar system. By utilizing the algorithm of multiple signal classification (MUSIC), we illustrate that the proposed scheme performs better than the uniform linear arrays (ULA) configuration under the same conditions. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of our scheme.

This paper discusses the problem of direction of departure (DOD) and direction of arrival (DOA) estimation using the root multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm in a bistatic multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) radar. The proposed algorithm gets the estimation of DOA and DOD via computing the roots of polynomials and it avoids the spectral peak searching in the conventional MUSIC algorithm. Thus the Root-MUSIC algorithm has much lower computational load. Simulation results illustrate our proposed algorithm has better angle estimation performance than the conventional algorithms.

A dual-polarized multiple signal classification (DP-MUSIC) algorithm is presented to estimate the arrival directions and polarizations for a dual-polarized conformal array. Each polarization signal is decomposed into two orthogonal polarization components, which are considered to be a pair of coherent signals coming from the same direction but different polarization. The polarization parameters are modeled as the equivalent coherence coefficients of the orthogonal polarization components. Then, the method of decoherence can be used to decouple the information of polarization states and signal angles. After that, the direction of arrival (DOA) and polarization parameters can be estimated by the DP-MUSIC algorithm. Moreover, the angles of incident direction are re-estimated, which greatly improves the accuracy of DOA estimation. The Cramer–Rao bound (CRB) is derived and the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by Monte Carlo simulations.

This work is mainly focused on the application of the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm for gravitational wave burst search. This algorithm extracts important gravitational wave characteristics from signals coming from detectors with arbitrary position, orientation and noise covariance. In this paper, the MUSIC algorithm is described in detail along with the necessary adjustments required for gravitational wave burst search. The algorithm's performance is measured using simulated signals and noise. MUSIC is compared with the Q-transform for signal triggering and with Bayesian analysis for direction of arrival (DOA) estimation, using the Ω-pipeline. Experimental results show that MUSIC has a lower resolution but is faster. MUSIC is a promising tool for real-time gravitational wave search for multi-messenger astronomy.

A low complexity monostatic cross multiple-in multiple-out (MIMO) radar scheme is proposed in this paper. The minimum-redundancy linear array (MRLA) is introduced in the cross radar to improve the efficiency of the array elements. The two-dimensional direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation problem links to the trilinear model, which automatically pairs the estimated two-dimensional angles, requiring neither eigenvalue decomposition of received signal covariance matrix nor spectral peak searching. The proposed scheme performs better than the uniform linear arrays (ULA) configuration under the same conditions, and the proposed algorithm has less computational complexity than that of multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm. Simulation results show the effectiveness of our scheme.

This paper addresses the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation problem in the colocated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar with nonorthogonal signals. The maximum number of targets that can be estimated is theoretically derived as rankRsN, where N denotes the number of receiving antennas and Rs is the cross-correlation matrix of the transmitted signals. Therefore, with the rank-deficient cross-correlation matrix, the maximum number that can be estimated is less than the radar with orthogonal signals. Then, a multiple signal classification- (MUSIC-) based algorithm is given for the nonorthogonal signals. Furthermore, the DOA estimation performance is also theoretically analyzed by the Carmér-Rao lower bound. Simulation results show that the nonorthogonality degrades the DOA estimation performance only in the scenario with the rank-deficient cross-correlation matrix.

A novel MUSIC-type algorithm is derived in this paper for the direction of departure (DOD) and direction of arrival (DOA) estimation in a bistatic MIMO radar. Through rearranging the received signal matrix, we illustrate that the DOD and the DOA can be separately estimated. Compared with conventional MUSIC-type algorithms, the proposed separate MUSIC algorithm can avoid the interference between DOD and DOA estimations effectively. Therefore, it is expected to give a better angle estimation performance and have a much lower computational complexity. Meanwhile, we demonstrate that our method is also effective for coherent targets in MIMO radar. Simulation results verify the efficiency of the proposed method, particularly when the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is low and/or the number of snapshots is small.

Direction of arrival (DOA) estimation is an essential problem in the radar systems. In this paper, the problem of DOA estimation is addressed in the multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) radar system for the fast-moving targets. A virtual aperture is provided by orthogonal waveforms in the MIMO radar to improve the DOA estimation performance. Different from the existing methods, we consider the DOA estimation method with only one snapshot for the fast-moving targets and achieve the super-resolution estimation from the snapshot. Based on a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), a denoise method is formulated to obtain a sparse approximation to the received signals, where the sparsity is measured by a new type of atomic norm for the MIMO radar system. However, the denoise problem cannot be solved efficiently. Then, by deriving the dual norm of the new atomic norm, a semidefinite matrix is constructed from the denoise problem to formulate a semidefinite problem with the dual optimization problem. Finally, the DOA is estimated by peak-searching the spatial spectrum. Simulation results show that the proposed method achieves better performance of the DOA estimation in the MIMO radar system with only one snapshot.

In the DOA estimation of monostatic L-shaped array MIMO radar, Multiple Signal Classification algorithm is efficient. But the peak searching process of Multiple Signal Classification algorithm needs large amount of spectrum calculation. Focusing on the spectrum peak searching process of Multiple Signal Classification, an iterative search approach to reduce the calculation amount is proposed. The first- and second-order derivatives of Multiple Signal Classification spectrum functions are achieved and the calculation amount is analyzed. Two-dimensional Newton iteration methods are applied with multisearching threads and derivation information. The searching approach can greatly reduce the computational complexity of Multiple Signal Classification spectrum peak searching. The total calculation amount of the first and second derivatives is about 15 times of the spectrum function. However, in the two-dimensional searching, especially in the high accuracy processes, the amount of searched points can be reduced by ten hundreds times, and the computation is much lower than the common spectrum peak searching method. The simulation results show that when the search thread number reaches 100, the searching process can effectively achieve the entire spectrum peak and get the correct DOA estimation.
