Abstract
Disclosed in the present invention is a two-dimensional direction-of-arrival estimation method for a coprime surface array based on virtual domain tensor filling, which mainly solves the problems of the loss of multi-dimensional signal structural information and the inability to fully utilize virtual domain statistics in the existing method. The steps thereof are as follows: constructing a coprime surface array; modeling a tensor of a received signal of the coprime surface array; constructing an augmented non-continuous virtual surface array based on cross-correlation tensor transformation of the coprime surface array; deriving a virtual domain tensor based on mirror extension of the non-continuous virtual surface array; dispersing contiguous missing elements by reconstructing the virtual domain tensor; filling the virtual domain tensor based on the minimization of a tensor kernel norm; and decomposing a filled virtual domain tensor to obtain a direction-of-arrival estimation result.
