More Information
  • Super-resolution Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation is a critical problem related to vehicle-borne Millimeter-wave radars that needs to be solved to realize accurate target positioning and tracking. Based on the common conditions of limited array aperture, low snapshot, low signal-to-noise ratio, and coherent sources with respect to vehicle-borne scenarios, a super-resolution DOA estimation method for a moving target with an MMW radar based on Range-Doppler Atom Norm Minimize (RD-ANM) is proposed herein. First, an array for receiving signals in the range-Doppler domain is constructed based on the radar echo of the moving target. Then, the compensation vector for the Doppler coupling phase of the moving target is designed to reduce the influence of target motion on DOA estimation. Finally, a multitarget super-resolution DOA estimation method based on the atomic norm framework is proposed herein. Compared to the existing DOA estimation algorithm, the proposed algorithm can achieve higher angular resolution and estimation accuracy owing to low signal-to-noise ratio and single snapshot processing conditions, as well as robust performance in processing coherent sources without sacrificing array aperture. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is proven via theoretical analyses, numerical simulations, and experiments.
