文摘Most of the existing direction of arrival(DOA)estimation algorithms are applied under the assumption that the array manifold is ideal.In practical engineering applications,the existence of non-ideal conditions such as mutual coupling between array elements,array amplitude and phase errors,and array element position errors leads to defects in the array manifold,which makes the performance of the algorithm decline rapidly or even fail.In order to solve the problem of DOA estimation in the presence of amplitude and phase errors and array element position errors,this paper introduces the first-order Taylor expansion equivalent model of the received signal under the uniform linear array from the Bayesian point of view.In the solution,the amplitude and phase error parameters and the array element position error parameters are regarded as random variables obeying the Gaussian distribution.At the same time,the expectation-maximization algorithm is used to update the probability distribution parameters,and then the two error parameters are solved alternately to obtain more accurate DOA estimation results.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by simulation and experiment.
