The normalized Subarray rectangular projection Beamforming Method of covariance matrix is based on the invention provides one kind, first Signal is received to Subarray to be normalized, and calculates corresponding normalization sample covariance matrix;Then MDL is utilized Criterion estimates interference signal source number, and then obtains interference space;Static weight vector is finally projected into interference space The orthogonal complement space and obtain adaptive weight vector.Subarray partition it is uneven and it is relatively low sampling snap in the case of, the present invention Interference can effectively be suppressed, and the main lobe of adaptive direction figure can be made conformal and secondary lobe reduction, and higher output can be obtained SINR and faster convergence rate.The flow of the present invention is as shown in figure 1, comprise the following steps that:
Step 1: constructing normalized Subarray covariance matrix
1. the foundation of signal model
Assuming that an arrowband linear array, common N number of array element, array element is isotropism, and P interference signal, interference signal is remote Field narrow band signal, it is assumed that each array element noise is space-time white noise separate, that power is equal and interference signal and noise are mutual It is uncorrelated.Then array received to signal model be represented by
Xin(t)=AS (t)+N (t) (1)
In formula, A=[a (θ1),a(θ2),…a(θP)] it is array manifold matrix, a (θi) (i=1,2 ... P) believe for interference Number steering vector, if the spacing of n-th of array element and reference point be dn(n=0,1,2 ..., N-1), generally using the 0th array element as Reference point, now d0=0, λ are wavelength, thenθi(i=1,2 ... P) be The incident angle of interference signal, []TFor matrix transposition, S (t)=[S1(t),S2(t),…Sp(t)]T, Si(t) (i=1,2 ... P it is) complex envelope of i-th of interference signal, N (t)=[n1(t),n2(t),…,nN(t)] it is background white noise.
It is so as to obtain array covariance matrix
Rin=E { Xin(t)Xin H(t)} (2)
In formula, E { } represents mathematic expectaion, ()HRepresent complex conjugate transposition.
In practical application, according to maximal possibility estimation criterion, by limited snapshot data Xin(ti) estimate array covariance Matrix, is obtained
In formula, Xin(ti) be i (i=1,2 ..., K) moment array sampled value, K is the fast umber of beats of sampling.
When Subarray is handled, array is divided into L submatrix, and (L >=P+1), can be non-overlapped submatrix or overlapping Submatrix, submatrix transition matrix is represented by
T=φ0WT0 (4)
WhereinThe effect of phase shifter is represented, if beam position It is identical with desired signal direction;W=diag (wn)N=0,1 ..., N-1, wherein wnFor the weight coefficient of n-th of array element, for the side of suppression To the sidelobe level of figure;T0Matrix is formed for N × L submatrix, in all elements that its l (l=0,1 ..., L-1) is arranged, only It is 1 to have the element value corresponding with the array element sequence number of l-th of submatrix, remaining be 0 (in the case of non-overlapped submatrix, T0's Column vector is mutually orthogonal).
The sampling snap signal then received on Subarray is
Xin_sub(t)=THXin(t) (5)
Then the covariance matrix of Subarray is
2. the normalization of covariance matrix
The output of each submatrix is normalized first, normalization passes through matrix TLComplete
Wherein
U=N0+N1+…+Nl-1-J0-J1-…-Jl-1+1
Q=N0+N1+…+Nl-J0-J1-…-Jl-1
NiThe array number included for i-th (0≤i≤L-1) individual submatrix, JiFor i-th (0≤i≤L-2) individual submatrix and i+1 The overlapping array number of individual submatrix.
Interference plus noise covariance matrix after normalization is
Pass through normalized so that the noise power of each submatrix is consistent, so that MDL criterions can be applicable.
Step 2: estimation interference space
To normalized covariance matrix Rsub_normCarry out Eigenvalues Decomposition
In formula, λi(i=1,2 ..., L) it is covariance matrix Rsub_normCharacteristic value,For with eigenvalue λiCorresponding spy Levy vector, λiDescending arrangement
The number of interference signal source is estimated using MDL criterions, and then estimates interference space.
The function of MDL criterions is
Wherein
From MDL criterions, when d numerical value change, when formula (11) takes minimum value, corresponding d value is interference letter The number P in number source, selected characteristic vectorPreceding P Column vector groups into interference space Us, i.e.,By Mathematical knowledge understands vectorWith vector a (θ1),a(θ2),…,a(θp) open into same vector space, i.e.,:
Wherein, span { } represents the space of vector,As interference space is estimated Meter.
Step 3: solving the adaptive weight vector of innovatory algorithm
The interference space estimated using step 2, using rectangular projection Adaptive beamformer method, is solved and changed Enter the adaptive weight vector of algorithm.
The thought of algorithm is thrown using conventional orthogonal, by static weight vector wq_subThe interference space estimated into step 2 UsOrthogonal complement space projection, the adaptive weight vector for obtaining innovatory algorithm is
In formula, I is that L × L ties up unit matrix, and η is a constant, wq_subFor static weight vector, and each element is 1 L dimensions Column vector,Effect be make antenna main beam direction gain keep it is constant.
Step 4, Adaptive beamformer is carried out to the echo received
After adaptive weight vector is obtained, processing can be weighted to the echo data of reception:
Y=WHX(t) (13)
In formula, X (t) is the echo-signal received, and noise is disturbed and weaken so as to effectively removes, and letter is expected in enhancing Number.
Since then, just complete a kind of based on the normalized sub- Adaptive beamformer of Subarray rectangular projection of covariance matrix Processing of the method to echo data.
