Noncircular Distributed Source DOA Estimation with Nested Arrays via Reduced-Dimension MUSIC
Abstract
:1. Introduction
1.1. Prior Art
1.2. Motivations and Contributions
- We analyze the similarity among the sources in a certain parameter and degrade the CD sources into point sources based on this nature. Then, a rank-restoring method like a spatial smoothing technique could be applied to form a full-rank signal matrix.
- The feature of noncircular signals is taken advantage of by a nested array to form a DCA and two SCAs, which are well used to construct a longer virtual ULA. More DOFs are obtained compared with other algorithms [11,13,24,27]. The outstanding performance of the proposed algorithm is verified in simulations.
- Based on the idea of RD-MUSIC, we develop the MSD-RD-MUSIC to estimate the DOA parameter through a one-dimensional peak-searching procedure, which significantly lowers the computational complexity.

4.3. Advantages of the Proposed Algorithm
- Comparing MSD-2D-MUSIC with the cost function introduced in (53), our algorithm maintains the same DOFs while reducing complexity remarkably, which strikes a balance between the performance and complexity.
- Compared with SD-RD-MUSIC [24], it makes use of all three co-arrays. The extra positive SCA can provide additional DOFs, which improves the estimation accuracy.
