Computationally efficient direction of arrival estimation using adaptive grid selection

Wu, Yanan LU ; Jakobsson, Andreas LU orcid and Liu, Lutao (2023) In IET Radar, Sonar and Navigation 17(11). p.1599-1611
Abstract

The authors propose a computationally efficient approach to estimate the directions of arrival of far-field sources impinging on a sensor array. The proposed estimator is formed using a sparse reconstruction framework, employing a novel adaptive grid selection technique to reduce the dimensionality of the used dictionary matrix. The method further makes use of a SPICE-inspired dictionary to adaptively select an appropriate regularisation parameter and to select the active grid set. An adaptive stepsize selection strategy is also introduced to reduce computation complexity further. The proposed method allows for accurate direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimates using even a single snapshot, also from weak sources. Numerical simulations... (More)

The authors propose a computationally efficient approach to estimate the directions of arrival of far-field sources impinging on a sensor array. The proposed estimator is formed using a sparse reconstruction framework, employing a novel adaptive grid selection technique to reduce the dimensionality of the used dictionary matrix. The method further makes use of a SPICE-inspired dictionary to adaptively select an appropriate regularisation parameter and to select the active grid set. An adaptive stepsize selection strategy is also introduced to reduce computation complexity further. The proposed method allows for accurate direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimates using even a single snapshot, also from weak sources. Numerical simulations indicate that the method offers preferable performance in comparison to existing state-of-the-art DOA estimation algorithms.
