Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic countermeasure, and particularly relates to a uniform circular array single snapshot direction finding method based on a pseudo covariance matrix. For the array receiving data of the uniform circular array, the invention firstly converts the data into the receiving data of the virtual linear array through mode space transformation, thereby leading the array flow pattern to have a Vandemonde form. And then constructing the pseudo covariance matrix to enable the pseudo covariance matrix for subsequent processing to reach a full rank, so that subsequent eigen decomposition can correctly divide the signal subspace and the noise subspace. Finally, the MUSIC algorithm is used for the pseudo-covariance matrix, namely, the covariance matrix is subjected to characteristic decomposition, and then the orthogonality of the guide vector and the noise subspace is searched, so that the incident azimuth angle of the signal is obtained. The method has the advantages that the single snapshot direction finding can be carried out by using the uniform circular array, the method is simple, and the effect is good.

Description

Pseudo covariance matrix-based uniform circular array single snapshot direction finding method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electronic countermeasure, and relates to a uniform circular array single snapshot direction finding method based on a pseudo covariance matrix.
Background
Angle of arrival (DOA) estimation is one of the main problems to be studied in array signal processing, and has wide application in the fields of radio communication, electronic reconnaissance and the like. And single snapshot DOA estimation, namely, only the data of a single snapshot is processed, so that the estimation of the direction of arrival of the input signal is realized. At present, with the continuous improvement of DOA estimation on the real-time requirement, the algorithm operation amount is reduced by reducing the sampling fast beat number, the system real-time is improved, and the DOA estimation method becomes a hot spot of research in the DOA estimation field in recent years.
Among the single-snapshot direction finding algorithms, the most widely applied is the study based on the pseudo covariance matrix and spatial smoothing. The spatial smoothing method divides an array under a certain rule into a plurality of sub-arrays, each sub-array has the same rule, and an array covariance matrix corresponding to each sub-array is obtained. The new covariance matrix is constructed by processing the data to replace the whole matrix which is not divided into sub-matrices. The other method is a pseudo covariance matrix method, which converts a covariance matrix into a pseudo covariance matrix by processing received data under the condition of single snapshot, thereby increasing useful information quantity, enabling the rank of the matrix to reach the signal source number, and further applying the classical direction finding algorithm to the condition of single snapshot with the limit of fast snapshot number. However, both methods can only process matrices having the vandermode form, and when uniform circular arrays are used, single snapshot direction finding cannot be directly performed.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the problems, the invention provides a uniform circular array single snapshot direction finding method based on a pseudo covariance matrix.
The technical scheme adopted by the invention is as follows:
and for the received single snapshot data, converting the array flow pattern of the circular array into a virtual linear array by using mode space conversion, wherein the processed data is equivalent to the array flow pattern of the virtual linear array multiplied by a signal. The array flow pattern now has the vandenonde form. And constructing a pseudo covariance matrix by taking the processed data. And (3) carrying out eigenvalue decomposition on the matrix, and utilizing the fact that the guide vector of the signal subspace is orthogonal to the noise subspace under the ideal condition, the product is very small under the actual condition, carrying out spectrum peak search on the azimuth angle from 0 degree to 360 degrees, wherein the angle corresponding to the maximum value point is the signal incidence direction.
Consider a uniform circular array of discrete fourier transforms that receive data. Suppose N far-field signal sources (θ)1,…,θN) The signal of (A) is incident on a uniform circular array of M array elements, the circular array elements are isotropic, and a received data matrix is
x=As+n (1)
