Abstract
To solve the problem that the true target direction of arrival (DOA) is not on the discrete grid points, we adopt a new off-grid sparse strategy to estimate the target DOA of passive radar. This strategy is the root sparse Bayesian learning method, which utilizes a coarse grid and treats the sampling position in the coarse grid as an adaptive parameter. Then, the coarse mesh is iteratively refined using the expectation maximization algorithm, and the estimated angle is the root of a certain polynomial. Simulation results show that the method has higher estimation accuracy and lower computational complexity in DOA estimation of passive radar. In addition, this method can not only estimate the DOA of multi-target signals in a single snapshot, but also provide new ideas for DOA estimation of coherent signals.
