Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In low-altitude target situation, the multi-path signals cause the amplitude-phase distortion of direct signal from targets and degrade the performance of existing methods. Hence, in this paper, we propose a phase enhancement method for low-angle estimation using supervised deep neural network (DNN) to mitigate the phase distortion, thus to improve direction of arrival (DOA) estimation accuracy. The mapping relationship between the original phase difference distribution of the received signal and desired phase difference distribution is learned by DNN during training. The phase of test data is enhanced by trained DNN, and the enhanced phase is used for DOA estimation. We explain the significance of enhancing phase instead of amplitude by discussing the sensitivity of amplitude and phase on DOA estimation. Moreover, we prove the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method by simulation experiments. The results demonstrate that the proposed technique has a better performance in terms of estimation error and goodness of fit (GoF) than the physics-driven DOA estimation methods and state-of-the-art methods including feature reversal and the support vector regression (SVR).
