A joint parameter estimation algorithm of direction of arrival（DOA）, frequency and polarization is presented for plane-wave signals. The direct sampling and the corresponding delayed sampling data are used to construct the data correlation matrix. On the basis of the subspace theory and the least square method, the frequency and the steering vector of the whole array are obtained. According to the relationship of the array manifold vector between electric dipoles and magnetic loops,the polarization parameters are given. The unambiguous phase estimates are acquired by applying virtual baseline array transformation to the spatial steering vectors, and they are used as coarse references to disambiguate the cyclic phase ambiguities in phase differences between two adjacent array elements on the array,then the high accuracy DOA estimates are obtained. Closed-form solutions for each parameter are obtained. This method has advantages of lower calculation complexity and no parameter matching. The experiment results verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the presented algorithm.展开更多

The sparse Bayesian learning （SBL） technique is introduced to exploit the sparsity of the incident signals in space to solve this problem and a new method is proposed by reconstructing the signals from the array outputs first and then exploit- ing the reconstructed signals to realize parameter estimation. Only 1-D searching and numerical calculations are contained in the proposed method, which makes the proposed method computa- tionally much efficient. Based on a linear array consisting of identically structured sensors, the proposed method can be used with slight modifications in PSA with different polarization structures. It also performs well in the presence of coherent signals or signals with different degrees of polarization. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the parameter estimation precision of the proposed method.展开更多

The incident sources have distinct carrier-frequencies, in contrast to the modeling of all sources to be at the same known carrier-frequency, which has been investigated in the existing research literature on the Cramér-Rao bounds （CRB） for polarization sensitive direction finding. The derived CRBs are compact closed-form expressions and applicable to an arbitrary array geometry. Numerical examples and analysis of some special cases provide insights into the fact that the estimation accuracy of all parameters is enhanced with the increasing signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） and number of snapshots. In addition, they are hardly influenced by the sampling frequency and independent of the initial phase of incident sources. These insights offer guidelines to the system engineer on how to improve parameters＇ estimation accuracy.展开更多

The proposed algorithm designs a new array configuration, and extends the PARAFAC analysis model from the common data-domain and subspace-domain to the cumulant one, and forms three-way arrays by using the three cumulant matrices obtained from the properly chosen dipole outputs, and analyzes the uniqueness of low-rank decomposition of the three-way arrays, and then jointly estimates the source parameters via the low-rank decomposition of the constructed PARAFAC model. In comparison with the conventional methods, the proposed method alleviates the aperture loss, and avoids pairing parameter. Finally, the simulation results are presented to validate the performance of the proposed method.展开更多
