Abstract
In this paper, a novel direction of arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm is proposed for monostatic multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar. Due to redundancy of the received data of monostatic MIMO radar, the computational complexity of the inversion of the covariance matrix is increased. In order to reduce the large computational complexity of existing subspace-based algorithms, we perform two reduced-dimensional operations. First, the high-dimensional received data is transformed the low-dimensional received data through a special transformation matrix. Second, the low-dimensional received data is transformed into beamspace. The receive beamspace filter is designed using convex optimization, and it can flexibly control the bandwidth and limit the sidelobe level. To ensure that the converted noise is Gaussian white noise, the prewhitening process is performed. Based on the above precondition, the reduced-dimensional beamspace technique can be effectively combined with the unitary ESPRIT model. Finally, the Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) on angle estimation in element space and reduced-dimensional beamspace is calculated for performance analysis. Numerical simulations verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
