摘要: 该文基于互质差分共性阵列研究运动单站的多目标直接定位问题。针对现有基于矩阵范数最小化的运动单站直接定位方法存在虚拟阵元冗余数据利用不充分和运算复杂度高的问题,该文提出了一种融合虚拟阵元冗余数据平均和协方差矩阵缺失元素快速补全的多目标直接定位方法。该方法引入虚拟阵元冗余数据平均技术构建差分共性阵列,并结合孔洞零值填充和Toeplitz矩阵重构恢复协方差矩阵的秩,然后基于核范数与Frobenius范数比值最小化原则,设计基于自适应阈值策略和Toeplitz约束的交替投影迭代算法,以实现虚拟阵列协方差矩阵缺失元素的高效补全,最后应用数据融合算法进行定位。数值仿真表明,所提方法能够在降低运算复杂度的同时提升定位精度,尤其在低信噪比和少观测数据场景中表现优异,有效平衡了定位精度与实时性的需求。Abstract: This paper addresses the multitarget direct localization problem for moving single stations using the coprime difference co-array. Existing methods based on matrix norm minimization often suffer from underutilization of redundant data from virtual array elements and high computational complexity. To overcome these limitations, we propose a multitarget direct localization approach that combines redundant data averaging for virtual array elements with fast completion of missing covariance matrix entries. First, redundant data averaging is applied to construct the difference co-array. Missing elements are then filled through zeroinitialization followed by Toeplitz matrix reconstruction, which restores the rank structure of the covariance matrix. An alternating projection iterative algorithm is subsequently developed to minimize the ratio of the nuclear norm to the Frobenius norm. By incorporating an adaptive threshold strategy and Toeplitz constraints, the algorithm efficiently completes the missing elements in the virtual array covariance matrix. Finally, a data fusion scheme is employed to obtain the localization results. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed method reduces computational complexity while improving localization accuracy, particularly under low signal-to-noise ratios and limited observation data. The results indicate that the method effectively balances localization accuracy with real-time performance requirements.
