To the conformal array antennas, the conventional DOA estimation algorithms will be affected by the Rayleigh limit. While, the MUSIC algorithm can solve this problem, it fully utilizes the orthogonality of noise subspace and signal subspace. It can achieve the DOA estimation through the spectrum peak search. The MUSIC algorithm is analyzed. Based on the cylindrical and conical array antenna, the algorithms are simulated. The simulation results show that the array arrangement mode can exert an important influence on the DOA estimation.

The estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) is an algorithm that uses the shift-invariant properties of the array antenna to estimate the direction-of-arrival (DOA) of signals received in the array antenna. Since the ESPRIT algorithm requires high-complexity operations such as covariance matrix and eigenvalue decomposition, a hardware processor must be implemented such that the DOA is estimated in real time. Additionally, the ESPRIT processor should support a scalable number of antenna configuration for DOA estimation in various applications because the performance of ESPRIT depends on the number of antennas. Therefore, we propose an ESPRIT processor that supports two to eight scalable antenna configuration. In addition, since the proposed ESPRIT processor is based on multiple invariances (MI) algorithm, it can achieve a much better performance than the existing ESPRIT processor. The execution time is reduced by simplifying the Jacobi method, which has the most significant computational complexity for calculating eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) in ESPRIT. Moreover, the ESPRIT processor was designed using hardware description language (HDL), and an FPGA-based verification was performed. The proposed ESPRIT processor was implemented with 10,088 slice registers, 18,207 LUTs, and 80 DSPs, and the slice register, LUT, and DSP were reduced by up to 71.45%, 54.5%, and 68.38%, respectively, compared to the existing structure.

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems are susceptible to radio frequency interference (RFI). The existence of RFI will cause serious degradation of SAR image quality and a huge risk of target misjudgment, which makes the research on RFI suppression methods receive widespread attention. Since the location of the RFI source is one of the most vital information for achieving RFI spatial filtering, this paper presents a novel location method of multiple independent RFI sources based on direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation and the non-convex optimization algorithm. It deploys an L-shaped multi-channel array on the SAR system to receive echo signals, and utilizes the two-dimensional estimating signal parameter via rotational invariance techniques (2D-ESPRIT) algorithm to estimate the positional relationship between the RFI source and the SAR system, ultimately combines the DOA estimation results of multiple azimuth time to calculate the geographic location of RFI sources through the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. Results on simulation experiments prove the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A Ku-band wideband conformal array antenna with13×19elements is presented in the paper. The array has a spherical structure, and its element is a proximity-coupled stacked patches antenna with a cavity-backed ground plane. The stacked patches and the cavity produce multiple coupled resonances, which enhance the bandwidth of the element extremely. A simulated model with the reasonable dimensions is framed with the coupling analyses, and the effective simulated results and good computing efficiency are obtained simultaneously. The measured results of the center embedded element in the whole array show a bandwidth exceeding 40%VSWR<2, which is close to the simulated matching performance.

The mathematical model of conformal antenna array is the premise and basis of the conformal array antenna signal processing. Based on the analysis of the antenna array, a design method for adjusting the direction of the conformal array antenna is proposed. Through simulation, the pattern of antenna meets the actual needs of the project and it reaches pre design requirements.
