Abstract
DOA (Direction of Arrival) is used to determine the direction of the targets and is one of the important technologies in array signal processing. To ensure the accuracy of traditional OMP-based DOA estimation algorithm, the over-complete dictionary needs to contain grids that match the real incident angles. However, for off-grid targets, the estimation accuracy will decrease. In this paper, we propose an improved OMP-based DOA estimation algorithm with genetic algorithm (GA), in which GA is introduced to search incident angle of the off-grid target directly, the subsequent traditional OMP steps are remained and the result got by which is used to filter out the false estimation results that deviate from the true target obtained by GA. Compared with the traditional OMP-based DOA estimation algorithm, this proposed algorithm could achieve higher accuracy. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of this proposed algorithm in the case of low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and low number of snapshots.
