This paper addresses the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation problem using a uniform rectangular array with electromagnetic vector-sensors in correlated/coherent signal environments. The polarization information is separated from the steering matrix to decorrelate the signals. By developing a tensorial structured received measurements of the array, we propose a tensor-based eigenvector DOA estimation method. Then we apply the forward-backward averaging to the tensor since it obeys the centro-Hermitian structure. In addition, a tensor-based polarization parameters estimation method is presented. The proposed algorithms are superior to the state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of estimation accuracy of coherent signals while only demand a modest computation burden comparing with the latter ones. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods under different scenarios.

This paper addresses the problem of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation of coherent signals in the presence of unknown mutual coupling, and an autoregression (AR) model-based method is proposed. The effects of mutual coupling can be eliminated by the inherent mechanism of the proposed algorithm, so the DOAs can be accurately estimated without any calibration sources. After the mixing matrix is estimated by independent component analysis (ICA), several parameter equations are established upon the mixing matrix. Finally, all DOAs of coherent signals are estimated by solving these equations. Compared with traditional methods, the proposed method has higher angle resolution and estimation accuracy. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.

In this paper, the topic of coherent two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) estimation is investigated. Our study jointly utilizes the compressed sensing (CS) technique and the parallel profiles with linear dependencies (PARALIND) model and presents a 2D-DOA estimation algorithm for coherent sources with the uniform rectangular array. Compared to the traditional PARALIND decomposition, the proposed algorithm owns lower computational complexity and smaller data storage capacity due to the process of compression. Besides, the proposed algorithm can obtain autopaired azimuth angles and elevation angles and can achieve the same estimation performance as the traditional PARALIND, which outperforms some familiar algorithms presented for coherent sources such as the forward backward spatial smoothing-estimating signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (FBSS-ESPRIT) and forward backward spatial smoothing-propagator method (FBSS-PM). Extensive simulations are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed CS-PARALIND algorithm.

The problem of azimuth and elevation directions of arrival (DOAs) estimation using a uniform rectangular array (URA) in single snapshot case is addressed in this paper. Using the principal singular vectors of the observed data matrix, an iterative procedure based on the linear prediction property, and weighted least squares is proposed for finding the DOAs with lower computational complexity. Furthermore, the azimuth and elevation parameters are automatically paired. Computer simulations are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

We investigate the topic of two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) estimation for rectangular array. This paper links angle estimation problem to compressive sensing trilinear model and derives a compressive sensing trilinear model-based angle estimation algorithm which can obtain the paired 2D-DOA estimation. The proposed algorithm not only requires no spectral peak searching but also has better angle estimation performance than estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) algorithm. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm has close angle estimation performance to trilinear decomposition. The proposed algorithm can be regarded as a combination of trilinear model and compressive sensing theory, and it brings much lower computational complexity and much smaller demand for storage capacity. Numerical simulations present the effectiveness of our approach.
