Abstract
Currently, the widely used methods for direction of arrival (DOA) estimation were constructed based on the subspace, such as Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) and Estimating Signal Parameter via Rotational Invariance Techniques (ESPRIT), which needed to know the number of sources in advance. In this paper, a new model based on the Generalized Reference Curve Model (GRCM) for the DOA estimation was proposed, which do not need to know the sources number in advance. And the comparison of the performance between the proposed model and the MUSIC model was given to demonstrate the effectiveness of our method. The algorithm of Multi-target Intermittent Particle Swarm Optimization (MIPSO) was adopted to solve the model proposed in this paper, and the performance of the MIPSO was analyzed through a simulation. The result shown that:(1) the GRCM was an effective model to solve the DOA estimation without prior knowledge of the sources number; (2) the MIPSO was an efficient algorithm to solve the DOA estimation with much shorter operation time and high precision.
