    • 摘要: 在阵列信号处理快速发展的当下,波达方向(DOA)估计算法与波束形成技术能够精确估计目标的来波角度,为雷达、通信等应用领域提供技术支撑。针对现有DOA估计算法在时变环境下因噪声功率过大导致信号测量精度下降问题,文中提出了一种新颖的基于运动平台对静止目标的DOA估计方法。该方法引入波束形成方向图积累的概念,建立了线性DOA估计模型,并提出一种基于快速傅里叶变换的长时间时变DOA精确估计方法用于微调波达方向,增强信号的累积效应,消除线性DOA变化。首先,通过直接波束形成算法获得短时间的DOA估计结果,然后,补偿长时间接收信号的DOA时变量,最后,获得较为精确的DOA估计。仿真结果表明:在不同信噪比下,所提算法保证了DOA估计的测量误差及准确性等问题。

       

      Abstract: With the rapid development of array signal processing, direction of arrival (DOA) estimation and beamforming technology can accurately estimate the angle of incoming vaves of targets, providing technical support for application fields such as radar and communications. To address the issue of decreased signal measurement accuracy caused by excessive noise power in existing DOA estimation algorithms in time-varying environments, a novel DOA estimation method based on the idea of moving platform for stationary targets is proposed in the paper. In this method, the concept of beamforming pattern accumulation is introduced, and a linear DOA estimation model is established; moreover, a long-term time-varying DOA accurate estimation method based on fast Fourier transform is proposed to fine-tune the DOA, enhance the signal accumulation effect, and eliminate linear DOA variations. Firstly, a short-term DOA estimation result is obtained by direct beamforming algorithm. Then, the previous result is used for the compensation of the time-varying DOA variable of received signal over a long period of time. Finally, a more accurate DOA estimation is achieved. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm effectively addresses the issues of measurement errors and accuracy in DOA estimation under different signal-to-noise ratios.
