Abstract
A two-dimensional direction-of-arrival estimation method for a coprime planar array based on structured coarray tensor processing, the method includes: deploying a coprime planar array; modeling a tensor of the received signals; deriving the second-order equivalent signals of an augmented virtual array based on cross-correlation tensor transformation; deploying a three-dimensional coarray tensor of the virtual array; deploying a five-dimensional coarray tensor based on a coarray tensor dimension extension strategy; forming a structured coarray tensor including three-dimensional spatial information; and achieving two-dimensional direction-of-arrival estimation through CANDECOMP/PARACFAC decomposition. The present disclosure constructs a processing framework of a structured coarray tensor based on statistical analysis of coprime planar array tensor signals, to achieve multi-source two-dimensional direction-of-arrival estimation in the underdetermined case on the basis of ensuring the performance such as resolution and estimation accuracy, and can be used for multi-target positioning.
