Aiming at two-dimensional (2D) coherent distributed (CD) sources, this paper has proposed a direction of arrival (DOA) tracking algorithm based on signal subspace updating under the uniform rectangular array (URA). First, based on the hypothesis of small angular spreads of distributed sources, the rotating invariant relations of the signal subspace of the receive vector of URA are derived. An ESPRIT-like method is constructed for DOA estimation using two adjacent parallel linear arrays of URA. Through the synthesis of estimation by multiple groups of parallel linear arrays within URA arrays, the DOA estimation method for 2D CD sources based on URA is obtained. Then, fast approximated power iteration (FAPI) subspace tracking algorithm is used to update the signal subspace. In this way, DOA tracking of 2D CD sources can be realized by DOA estimation through signal subspace updating. This algorithm has a low computational complexity and good real-time tracking performance. In addition, the algorithm can track multiple CD sources without knowing the angular signal distribution functions, which is robust to model errors.

We study two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) estimation problem of monostatic MIMO radar with the receiving array which consists of electromagnetic vector sensors (EMVSs). The proposed angle estimation algorithm can be applied to the arbitrary and unknown array configuration, which can be summarized as follows. Firstly, EMVSs in the receiver of a monostatic MIMO radar are used to measure all six electromagnetic-field components of an incident wavefield. The vector sensor array with the six unknown electromagnetic-field components is divided into six spatially identical subarrays. Secondly, ESPRIT is utilized to estimate the rotational invariant factors (RIFs). Parts of the RIFs are picked up to restore the source’s electromagnetic-field vector. Last, a vector cross product operation is performed between electric field and magnetic field to obtain the Pointing vector, which can offer the 2D-DOA estimation. Prior knowledge of array elements’ positions and angle searching procedure are not necessary for the proposed 2D-DOA estimation method. Simulation results prove the validity of the proposed method.

We investigate the topic of two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) estimation for rectangular array. This paper links angle estimation problem to compressive sensing trilinear model and derives a compressive sensing trilinear model-based angle estimation algorithm which can obtain the paired 2D-DOA estimation. The proposed algorithm not only requires no spectral peak searching but also has better angle estimation performance than estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT) algorithm. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm has close angle estimation performance to trilinear decomposition. The proposed algorithm can be regarded as a combination of trilinear model and compressive sensing theory, and it brings much lower computational complexity and much smaller demand for storage capacity. Numerical simulations present the effectiveness of our approach.
