A Sparse Representation Method for Coherent Sources Angle Estimation with Uniform Circular Array by Xiaolong Su, Zhen Liu, Tianpeng Liu, Bo Peng, Xin Chen, Xiang Li

“…In this paper, a sparse representation method is considered to deal with two-dimensional (2D) direction of arrival (DOA) estimation for coherent sources with a uniform circular array (UCA). Considering that objective function requires sparsity in the spatial dimension but does not require sparsity in time, singular value decomposition (SVD) is employed to reduce computational complexity and ℓ2 norm is utilized to renew objective function. …”
