The Research of DOA Estimation Algorithms in The Conformal Array Antenna

摘要

To the conformal array antennas, the conventional DOA estimation algorithms will be affected by the Rayleigh limit. While, the MUSIC algorithm can solve this problem, it fully utilizes the orthogonality of noise subspace and signal subspace. It can achieve the DOA estimation through the spectrum peak search. The MUSIC algorithm is analyzed. Based on the cylindrical and conical array antenna, the algorithms are simulated. The simulation results show that the array arrangement mode can exert an important influence on the DOA estimation.
