摘要:

提出了一种采用支持向量机(support vector machine, SVM)建立模型实现来波方向估计的新方法。提取已知方向来波信号在天线阵元间感应的相位差作为模型的输入,利用支持向量回归机对复杂函数的逼近能力构建方向估计模型。充分利用了SVM的结构风险最小原则和泛化能力,使得模型对低信噪比和通道误差具有较强的适应能力。通过正弦和余弦函数变换的方法,有效解决了360°~0°转换不连续性引起的逼近误差,提高了估计精度,并给出了算法的具体实现步骤。实验结果验证了该方法的优越性和可行性。

Abstract:

A novel direction of arrival (DOA) estimation method, in which a model is established based on support vector machine (SVM), is presented. The phase differences resulting from known direction signals among the array elements of antennas are extracted as the input of the model, and then the DOA model based on the ability of approximating to complex functions of support vector regression is constructed. The good generalization performance and structural risk minimization theory of SVM is fully utilized so that the model has a good adaptability to the condition of low signaltonoise ratio and phase errors in the channel. The approximating error is effectively solved by using the transformation of sine and cosine functions, which is caused by the incontinuous transformation from 360° to 0°. The implement process using this algorithm is given in detail. Experiment results prove that the proposed method is good and feasible and has great use in the engineering application.
