In the DOA estimation of monostatic L-shaped array MIMO radar, Multiple Signal Classification algorithm is efficient. But the peak searching process of Multiple Signal Classification algorithm needs large amount of spectrum calculation. Focusing on the spectrum peak searching process of Multiple Signal Classification, an iterative search approach to reduce the calculation amount is proposed. The first- and second-order derivatives of Multiple Signal Classification spectrum functions are achieved and the calculation amount is analyzed. Two-dimensional Newton iteration methods are applied with multisearching threads and derivation information. The searching approach can greatly reduce the computational complexity of Multiple Signal Classification spectrum peak searching. The total calculation amount of the first and second derivatives is about 15 times of the spectrum function. However, in the two-dimensional searching, especially in the high accuracy processes, the amount of searched points can be reduced by ten hundreds times, and the computation is much lower than the common spectrum peak searching method. The simulation results show that when the search thread number reaches 100, the searching process can effectively achieve the entire spectrum peak and get the correct DOA estimation.

Vector-hydrophone can simultaneously measure acoustic pressure and orthogonal components of the particle velocity. The 180o ambiguity in DOA estimation can be eliminated using information obtained by vector hydrophone array. Multiple signal classification algorithm is a method that takes the eigen-decomposition of data co-variance matrix to obtain the estimation of signal spatial spectrum. The two-dimensional DOA of acoustic sources is estimated based on multiple signal classification algorithm using the vector-hydrophone uniform linear array. Simulation results show that better DOA resolution performance can be obtained from vector hydrophones. Furthermore, the paper takes the de-correlation of correlated sources using spatial smoothness technology to obtain perfect performance of two-dimensional DOA estimation.

In this paper, we investigate the problem of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for massive multi-input multi-output (MIMO) radar, and propose a total array-based multiple signals classification (TA-MUSIC) algorithm for two-dimensional direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation with a coprime cubic array (CCA). Unlike the conventional multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm, the TA-MUSIC algorithm employs not only the auto-covariance matrix but also the mutual covariance matrix by stacking the received signals of two sub cubic arrays so that full degrees of freedom (DOFs) can be utilized. We verified that the phase ambiguity problem can be eliminated by employing the coprime property. Moreover, to achieve lower complexity, we explored the estimation of signal parameters via the rotational invariance technique (ESPRIT)-based multiple signal classification (E-MUSIC) algorithm, which uses a successive scheme to be computationally efficient. The Cramer–Rao bound (CRB) was taken as a theoretical benchmark for the lower boundary of the unbiased estimate. Finally, numerical simulations were conducted in order to demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithms.
