Abstract
The line spectrum estimation and detection problem are considered in this paper. We propose a CFAR-based Newtonized OMP (NOMP-CFAR) method which can maintain a desired false alarm rate without the knowledge of the noise variance. The NOMP-CFAR consists of two steps, namely, an initialization step and a detection step. In the initialization step, NOMP is employed to obtain candidate sinusoidal components. In the detection step, CFAR detector is applied to detect each candidate frequency, and provides the “soft” thresholds. After removing the most unlikely target, the Newton refinements are used to refine the remaining parameters. The relationship between the false alarm rate and the required threshold is established. Compared with NOMP, NOMP-CFAR has only 1 dB performance loss in additive white Gaussian noise scenario with false alarm probability <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$10^{-2}$</tex-math></inline-formula> and detection probability 0.8 without knowledge of noise variance. For varied noise variance scenario, NOMP-CFAR still preserves its CFAR property, while NOMP violates the CFAR. Besides, real experiments are also conducted to demonstrate the detection performance of NOMP-CFAR, compared to CFAR and NOMP.
