Focused Compressive Sensing for Underdetermined Wideband DOA Estimation Exploiting High-Order Difference Coarrays

Group-sparsity-based method is applied to the <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$2q$</tex-math> </inline-formula>th-order difference coarray for underdetermined wideband direction of arrival (DOA) estimation. For complexity reduction, a focused compressive-sensing-based approach is proposed, without sacrificing its performance. Different from the conventional focusing approach, in the proposed one, focusing is applied to the virtual arrays and no preliminary DOA estimation is required. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
