Abstract
: An important bottleneck in spatial spectrum estimation theory is array errors. A new error self-calibration method is presented on the basis of active error calibration and online self-calibration theories. An algorithm combining Direction Of Arrival (DOA) estimation and array complex gain error calibration is developed using an auxiliary source without accurate spatial location information and numerical optimization calculation; the error calibration parameters can be used in the following spatial spectrum estimation. The method has a higher veracity than the active correction algorithm and is an offline calculation procedure, having the advantage of small computation amount, similar to the online self-calibration method, and avoiding accurate spatial location information in classical active calibration method.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Radars was founded in 2012 by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Information Innovation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (formerly the Institute of Electronics) and the China Radar Industry Association (CRIA), which is located in the high-end academic journal and academic exchange platform in the field of radar, and is committed to promoting and leading the scientific and technological development in the field of radar. The journal can publish Chinese papers and English papers, and is now a bimonthly journal.
Journal of Radars focuses on theory, originality and foresight, and its scope of coverage mainly includes: radar theory and system, radar signal and data processing technology, radar imaging technology, radar identification and application technology.
Journal of Radars has been included in domestic core journals and foreign Scopus, Ei and other databases, and was selected as ‘China's high-quality science and technology journals’, and ranked the first in the category of electronic technology and communication technology in the ‘Chinese Core Journals List (2023 Edition)’.
