該文研究了分離式極化敏感陣列(SS-PSA)的多目標(biāo)波達(dá)方向(DOA)估計(jì)問題。首先建立三正交分離式極化敏感均勻稀疏陣列的信號模型；接著利用陣列的旋轉(zhuǎn)不變性采用ESPRIT算法計(jì)算出多值模糊DOA估計(jì)；利用該模糊DOA估計(jì)值對分離式極化天線進(jìn)行空間相移的補(bǔ)償，然后利用共點(diǎn)式極化天線之間的多維角度結(jié)構(gòu)求出對應(yīng)的虛擬DOA估計(jì)；最后通過提取多值模糊估計(jì)值和對應(yīng)虛擬估計(jì)值之差的最小范數(shù)得到多目標(biāo)的DOA估計(jì)。該文所提陣列采用分離式極化天線代替?zhèn)鹘y(tǒng)共點(diǎn)式極化天線，降低了陣列的互耦影響；采用稀疏陣列結(jié)構(gòu)有效地?cái)U(kuò)展了陣列的物理孔徑，大大提高了DOA估計(jì)精度。計(jì)算機(jī)仿真結(jié)果證明了該算法對分離式極化天線DOA估計(jì)的有效性和高精度性。

本文研究了三正交分離式極化天線構(gòu)成的陣列對2維DOA的估計(jì)問題。提出了一種稀疏均勻矩形極化平面陣列，陣列的稀疏配置使得在不增加陣元數(shù)和硬件復(fù)雜度情況下有效擴(kuò)展了陣列物理孔徑，但同時(shí)也造成了2維DOA估計(jì)的模糊問題，提出了一種虛擬精-粗估計(jì)解模糊算法去掉其模糊值。該方法同時(shí)利用了極化天線提供的極化分集和稀疏陣列帶來的空間分集使得該陣列的2維DOA的估計(jì)性能大大優(yōu)于常規(guī)的標(biāo)量陣列；此外三正交分離式的極化天線設(shè)計(jì)靈活，解決了共點(diǎn)式極化天線互耦嚴(yán)重的問題，使得極化陣列硬件設(shè)計(jì)的難度大大降低；且繞開了電偶極子和磁偶極子響應(yīng)不一致的問題。

DOA Estimation with Three Orthogonally Oriented andSpatially Spread Polarization Sensitive Array

Zheng Gui-mei Chen Bai-xiao Wu Bo

(,,’710071,)

This paper discusses the issue of multiple targets’ Direction Of Arrival (DOA) estimation for Spatially Spread Polarization Sensitive Array (SS-PSA). First, the signal model of sparsely uniform SS-PSA with three orthogonally oriented polarized-antenna is presented. Then the rotational invariance of the proposed uniform array is utilized to calculate the ambiguous DOA estimation by means of ESPRIT method. The spatial phase shift raised by spatially spread polarized-antenna is compensated by the ambiguous DOA estimation to obtain virtual collocated polarized-antenna. The corresponding virtual DOA estimation is calculated by the multi-dimensional angle structure among the virtual collocated polarized-antenna. Finally, the multiple targets’ DOA estimation is obtained by extracting the minimum norm of the difference between the ambiguous DOA estimation and the corresponding virtual DOA estimation. The proposed array can reduce the array mutual coupling by using the spatially spread polarized-antenna instead of conventional collocated polarized-antenna. Moreover, the DOA estimation accuracy can be improved greatly because of the extended aperture offered by the sparse array. Computer simulation results verify the effectiveness and high-accuracy of the proposed SS-PSA DOA estimation algorithm.
