DOA Estimation Based on Approximate l0 Norm of Natural Logarithm Composite Function

doi:10.12382/bgxb.2022.0025

Abstract

Abstract:

A DOA estimation algorithm based on a natural logarithm compound function approximating l₀ norm is proposed to address the issues of slow convergence and low accuracy of existing compressed-sensing-based DOA estimation algorithms. We transform the problem of solving the l₀ norm into an optimization problem of approximating the l₀ norm by using a natural logarithm compound function. The Newton iteration method is employed to obtain the iteration expression of the natural logarithm compound function (for approximating l₀ norm).The optimal solution of Newton iteration is obtained through inside and outside double-loop iteration, where the outside loop controls the magnitude of function approximation factor σ, and the inside loop solves the Newton iteration expression using the steepest descent method. The optimal solution of the approximate l₀ norm is obtained after finite iterations, and the estimated value of DOA can be obtained. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves effective DOA estimation under the condition of a single snapshot, and outperforms the existing smoothened l₀ norm algorithm and its improved algorithms in terms of speed and accuracy.
