Abstract

Abstract:

In order to solve the problem of the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation error caused by the angle of incidence estimation in the traditional DOA estimation method of broadband array signal and its application in the environment of multipath effect, a DOA estimation method of broadband array signals based on eigenvector space focusing is proposed. Firstly, considering the influence of multipath interference on the DOA estimation algorithm, the autocorrelation matrix of the received signal is smoothed. Then, based on the transition of eigenvector space of the smooth autocorrelation matrix, the focusing matrix is constructed and its perfect focusing property is proved. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the method does not need to estimate the angle value of the incident signal, effectively avoids the focusing error, has low complexity, and improves the estimation accuracy and efficiency.

Key words: direction of arrival (DOA) estimation, broadband array, multipath effect, eigenvector space, perfect focus
