Zunliang He, Qingyu Liu, Liangnian Jin, Shan Ouyang · Electronics Letters · 2013
A low complexity method for direction‐of‐arrival (DOA) estimation via array covariance matrix sparse representation is proposed, in which DOA estimation can be cast as the sparse recovery problem of only a single measurement vector when multiple snapshots are available. Based on the Khatri‐Rao product, the proposed method shows an extended‐aperture and leads to a significant improvement in the resolution limit. Simulation results confirm the efficacy of the proposed method.
