Abstract
For the fact that current gridless Direction Of Arrival (DOA) estimation methods with twodimensional array suffer from unsatisfactory performance, a novel girdless DOA estimation method is proposed in this paper. For two-dimensional array, the atomic L0-norm is proved to be the solution of a Semi-Definite Programming (SDP) problem, whose cost function is the rank of a Hermitian matrix, which is constructed by finite order of Bessel functions of the first kind. According to low rank matrix recovery theorems, the cost function of the SDP problem is replaced by the log-det function, and the SDP problem is solved by Majorization-Minimization (MM) method. At last, the gridless DOA estimation is achieved by Vandermonde decomposition method of semidefinite Toeplitz matrix built by the solutions of above SDP problem. Sample covariance matrix is used to form the initial optimization problem in MM method, which can reduce the iterations. Simulation results show that, compared with on-grid MUSIC and other gridless methods, the proposed method has better Root-Mean-Square Error (RMSE) performance and identifiability to adjacent sources; When snapshots are enough and Signal-Noise-Ratio (SNR) is high, proper choice of the order of Bessel functions of the first kind can achieve approximate RMSE performance as that of higher order ones, and can reduce the running time.
