A two-dimensional direction finding method using an L-shape electromagnetic vector sensors array is proposed. According to this method, the DOAs of the independent signals and the coherent signals are estimated separately, so that the array aperture can be exploited sufficiently. Firstly, the DOAs of the independent signals are estimated by the estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques, and the influence of the co- herent signals can be eliminated by utilizing the property of the coherent signals. Then the data covariance matrix containing the information of the coherent signals only is obtained by exploiting the Toeplitz property of the independent signals, and an improved polarimetric angular smoothing technique is proposed to de-correlate the coherent signals. This new method is more practical in actual signal environment than common DOA estimation algorithms and can expand the array aperture. Simulation results are presented to show the estimating performance of the proposed method.展开更多

By mapping the complex signal space into the real one, the newmethod can effectively reduce the computation needed by the signal subspace direction findingtechniques without any performance degradation. In addition, the new preprocessing scheme itselfcan decorrelate the coherent signals received on the array. For regular array geometry such asuniform linear arrays and equal-spaced rectangular planar arrays, the popular spatial smoothingpreprocessing technique can be combined with the novel approach to improve the decorrelatingability. Simulation results confirm the above conclusions.展开更多
