Abstract

To tackle the issue of poor accuracy in single-snapshot data processing for Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation in passive radar systems, this paper introduces a method for judiciously leveraging multi-snapshot data. This approach effectively enhances the accuracy of DOA estimation and spatial angle resolution in passive radar systems. Additionally, in response to the non-convex nature of the mixed norm, we propose a hyperbolic tangent model as a replacement, transforming the problem into a directly solvable convex optimization problem. The rationality of this substitution is thoroughly demonstrated. Lastly, through a comparative analysis with existing discrete grid DOA estimation methods, we illustrate the superiority of the proposed approach, particularly under conditions of medium signal-to-noise ratio, varying numbers of snapshots, and close target angles. This method is less affected by the number of array elements, and is more usable in practices verified in real-world scenarios.
