Impact of antenna directivity on compressed sensing-based DOA estimation employing UCA antenna

抄録

This letter investigates the impact of the antenna element directivity on compressed sensing (CS)-based direction of arrival (DOA) estimation employing the uniform circular array (UCA) antenna. In the CS-based approach, the reconstruction accuracy of sparse signals is determined by a sensing matrix, which depends on the array antenna configuration in the DOA estimation. In our study, we analyze the cross-correlation between column vectors of the sensing matrix and clarify the estimation accuracy for various antenna element radiation patterns.
