Introduction Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar was first proposed in [1–3], which is a key research point in today’s radar field. In MIMO radar, all the antennas are omnidi- rectional and the transmitted signals are orthogonal to each other, which can achieve the waveform diversity gain in the receiver side. Currently, there are two main types of MIMO radars, namely, collocated MIMO radar [4–6] and statistical MIMO radar [7, 8]. e statistical MIMO radar is composed with separated transmit and receive antennas for obtaining both the waveform and spatial diversity gain. In contrast, in order to improve the estimation performance, the collocated MIMO radar closely places the transmitting and receiving arrays to form a virtual array that has large aperture. In the past few years, parameter estimation, including direction of arrival (DOA), direction of departure (DOD), and Doppler frequency, became a hot topic and investigated by a lot of researchers. In the common subspace-based methods, such as multiple signal classification algorithm (MUSIC) and estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT), MIMO radar has used them to achieve DOD and DOA estimation [9–14], which can obtain the desired performance with reasonable SNR and snapshots. In addition, a joint angle and Doppler frequency estimation method is investigated, which can be used to track the targets. However, it is noted that these methods for MIMO radar with narrow-band signals cannot achieve the rang information which is very important for target localization in practice. FDA radar can get the distance information of the target [15]. ere is one difference between the FDA radar and the traditional phased array radar, and for the FDA radar, the transmitting frequency of each transmitting antenna has a frequency increment so that it can draw the relevant beam pattern, improve the degree of freedom in space, and then achieve the joint angle and distance estimation about target in the FDA radar. However, the angle and range of the target in the beam domain of the FDA radar are mixed, so it cannot directly obtain the angle and distance information of the Hindawi Mathematical Problems in Engineering Volume 2020, Article ID 5720189, 8 pages https://doi.org/10.1155/2020/5720189

1 Introduction

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar was firstproposed in [1ndash3] which is a key research point in todayrsquosradar field In MIMO radar all the antennas are omnidi-rectional and the transmitted signals are orthogonal to eachother which can achieve the waveform diversity gain in thereceiver side Currently there are two main types of MIMOradars namely collocated MIMO radar [4ndash6] and statisticalMIMO radar [7 8] e statistical MIMO radar is composedwith separated transmit and receive antennas for obtainingboth the waveform and spatial diversity gain In contrast inorder to improve the estimation performance the collocatedMIMO radar closely places the transmitting and receivingarrays to form a virtual array that has large aperture In thepast few years parameter estimation including direction ofarrival (DOA) direction of departure (DOD) and Dopplerfrequency became a hot topic and investigated by a lot ofresearchers In the common subspace-based methods suchas multiple signal classification algorithm (MUSIC) and

estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariancetechniques (ESPRIT) MIMO radar has used them to achieveDOD and DOA estimation [9ndash14] which can obtain thedesired performance with reasonable SNR and snapshots Inaddition a joint angle and Doppler frequency estimationmethod is investigated which can be used to track thetargets However it is noted that these methods for MIMOradar with narrow-band signals cannot achieve the ranginformation which is very important for target localizationin practice

target through spectral peak search At present there aresome solutions to this problem In [16] a nonlinear FDAradar is proposed but this method needs to change the arrayelement position in actual operation which is difficult toachieve In [17 18] a method based on subarrays to achieveangle and distance decoupling is proposed but this methodhas the problem of distance ambiguity In addition in [19]the target positioning method of the coprime array FDAradar is studied and in [20 21] the nested FDA parameterestimation method is studied

In [18] FDA-MIMO radar with both frequency andwaveform diversity is proposed for the first time whichmakes use of the unique advantages of FDA radar andMIMO radar which not only has excellent target detectionperformance in target detection but also has a high freedomof the spatial degree it can realize the joint estimation of thetarget angle and range [17 22ndash24] At present there aremany kinds of FDA-MIMO radar target positioning algo-rithms such as MUSIC methods and ESPRITmethods butthe MUSIC method involves a spectral peak search andresults in a high algorithm complexity Although the ESPRITmethod can be applied to reduce the computational com-plexity and obtain the angle and range information of thetarget through rotation invariance this method is notsuitable for the phase ambiguity situation

e advantages of FDA are developed based on thecharacteristics of the multidimensional structure of thesignal e abovementioned traditional matrix processingmethod cannot make good use of the multidimensionalcharacteristics which limits their performance [25] To takeadvantage of the multidimensional structural characteristicsof the signal the PARAFAC decomposition is used for angleestimation in unknown target localization by modellingtensor signals [26ndash28] At present there are few studies ontensor-based FDA MIMO target estimation methods epaper proposes the algorithm based on parallel factorizationin monostatic FDA-MIMO radar is method first estab-lishes a third-order tensor signal model and uses parallelfactorization to obtain the transmission directionmatrix andthe reception direction matrix [29 30] en obtain theangle and distance information of the target by taking thephase of the directionmatrix and finally realize the angle anddistance estimation

e proposed method compares the achievement withtraditional estimation of signal parameters via rotationalinvariance techniques (ESPRIT) method [31] Unitary ES-PRIT method [32] and CramerndashRao Bound (CRB) epaper structure is divided into multiple parts Section 2introduces the tensor-based data model Section 3 deducesthe method of angle estimation and distance estimationeCRB of the target estimationmethod in FDA-MIMO radar isshown in Section 4 e Section 5 shows the simulationresults

31 Parallel FactorDecomposition In this section accordingto the trilinear alternating least square (TALS) method we

can estimate the transmitting direction matrix and the re-ceiving direction matrix e TALS method can be exploredfor data analysis in trilinear models

According to [33] the estimation of the directionmatrices can be obtained by the parallel factor decompo-sition e least squares (LS) update of equation (3) iswritten by

For the received noise signals according to the trilineardecomposition we can get the estimated parameter ma-trices 1113954AT ATΛM1 + N1 1113954AR ARΛM2 + N2 and1113954B BΛM3 + N3 where Λ is a permutation matrix N1 N2and N3 stand for the matrices in correspondence to esti-mation errors and M1 M2 and M3 denote the diagonalscaling matrices and are subject to M1M2M3 IK e in-herent scale ambiguity and permutation of trilinear de-composition and normalization can be used to eliminatescale ambiguity

32 Angle Estimation From the trilinear decomposition inthe previous section we can get estimates of the directionmatrices 1113954AT and 1113954AR by the TALS method

It can be seen from the signal model that the steervector of 1113954AR is only related to the direction of arrival(DOA) and we can get the estimated value of the anglethrough 1113954AR

In the paper the receive array can be preset as half-wavelengths spaced uniform linear arrays (ULA) so thereceive steering vector of θk is

ar θk( 1113857 1 ejπ sin θk( ) e

jπ(Nminus 1)sin θk( )1113876 1113877T

Let ψr denote the phase of ar(θk) which can beexpressed as

ψr angle ar θk( 1113857( 1113857 0 π sin θk π(N minus 1)sin θk1113858 1113859T

(16)

After the receiving steering vector is well calibrated it isrepresented as 1113954ar(θk) and utilizes normalization to dispelscale ambiguity So 1113954ψr can be obtained from equation (16)e estimate of sin θk can be calculated by LS principle Wecan construct the LS fitting as

where 1113954qr(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector1113954qr

33 Range Estimation For the tensor-based data model therange and transmit angle of the uncorrelated target are bothincluded in the transmit steering vector So the transmitsteering vector can be expressed as

at θk rk( 1113857 at θk( 1113857 ∘ at rk( 1113857 (21)

whereat(θk) [1 e(minus j2πd sin(θkλ0)) e(minus j2πd(Mminus 1)sin(θkλ0))]T andat(rk) [1 e(minus j2π2Δf(rkc)) e(minus j2π2Δf(Mminus 1)rkc)]T denotethe transmitting angle steering vector and range steeringvector respectively

e transmit array is preset as half-wavelengths spacedULA so the transmitting steer vector of (θk rk) can bereduced as

has been obtained Referring to the derivation process in theprevious section and letting ψt represent the phase ofat(rk θk) which can be expressed as

where 1113954qt(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector 1113954qt

So far we already get the angle and range of the un-correlated target in the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar Wecan recap the key processes of the proposed method asfollows

(i) Step 1 according to equation (6) the received datais transformed into a third-order tensor model

(ii) Step 2 apply the trilinear decomposition principlewe can obtain the transmitting direction matrix 1113954AT

and the receiving direction matrix 1113954AR(iii) Step 3 take the phase 1113954qr and 1113954qt of 1113954AR and 1113954AT by

equations (16) and (23) respectively(iv) Step 4 the phase 1113954ψr of the receive direction matrix

was plugged into equation (17) and obtain 1113954qr by LSfitting then the receive angle 1113954θr can be calculated byequation (20)

(v) Step 5 similarly we can obtain1113954qt then the range 1113954rk

of target can be calculated by substituting the angleinto equation (25)

In addition the probability of successful detection isanother metric used to appraise the achievement of ourmethod which is defined by

PSD V

Ttimes 100 (30)

where V represents the number of successful estimates andthe criterion for the success of the angle and range exper-iments is that the absolute value of all experimental nu-merical errors are less than the minimum 01deg and 01 kmrespectively

We preset SNR 20 dB in the first simulation Figure 3shows the estimation results of our proposed methodFigure 3 shows the estimation of the range and angle of theuncorrelated targets are correct and the landing points arehighly concentrated It directly proves the stability andaccuracy of the proposed method

And then L denotes the number of snapshots and it ispreset to L 50 in this simulation We first investigate theliaison between RMSE and SNR of range estimation andangle estimation in the second simulation We use twocomparison methods which are the ESPRIT method [31]and the Unitary ESPRIT method [32] respectively Afterintroducing CRB they are compared with the proposedmethod Figures 4 and 5 correspond to the simulation Fromthe two figures it can be demonstrated that the estimatedperformance of the proposed method is better than theESPRIT method and the Unitary ESPRIT method In ad-dition the RMSE of the proposed method is closer to CRB

Mathematical Problems in Engineering 5

From the following we explore the relationshipbetween RMSE and snapshots of range estimation andangle estimation in the third simulation and the resultsare shown in Figures 6 and 7 respectively e SNR

10 dB is preset in this simulation Similar to the firstsimulation after introducing CRB we use the contrastmethods to compare with the proposed algorithm As thenumber of snapshots increase we can know from thefigures that the RMSE of three methods and CRB alldecrease So we conclude that the accuracy of themethods is improving and the proposed method has thebest performance

In the fourth simulation the relationship betweenprobability and SNR of angle and range probability

Page 2: Tensor …downloads.hindawi.com/journals/mpe/2020/5720189.pdftarget through spectral peak search. At present, there are some solutions to this problem. In [16], a nonlinear FDA radarisproposed,butthismethodneedstochangethearray

target through spectral peak search At present there aresome solutions to this problem In [16] a nonlinear FDAradar is proposed but this method needs to change the arrayelement position in actual operation which is difficult toachieve In [17 18] a method based on subarrays to achieveangle and distance decoupling is proposed but this methodhas the problem of distance ambiguity In addition in [19]the target positioning method of the coprime array FDAradar is studied and in [20 21] the nested FDA parameterestimation method is studied

In [18] FDA-MIMO radar with both frequency andwaveform diversity is proposed for the first time whichmakes use of the unique advantages of FDA radar andMIMO radar which not only has excellent target detectionperformance in target detection but also has a high freedomof the spatial degree it can realize the joint estimation of thetarget angle and range [17 22ndash24] At present there aremany kinds of FDA-MIMO radar target positioning algo-rithms such as MUSIC methods and ESPRITmethods butthe MUSIC method involves a spectral peak search andresults in a high algorithm complexity Although the ESPRITmethod can be applied to reduce the computational com-plexity and obtain the angle and range information of thetarget through rotation invariance this method is notsuitable for the phase ambiguity situation

e advantages of FDA are developed based on thecharacteristics of the multidimensional structure of thesignal e abovementioned traditional matrix processingmethod cannot make good use of the multidimensionalcharacteristics which limits their performance [25] To takeadvantage of the multidimensional structural characteristicsof the signal the PARAFAC decomposition is used for angleestimation in unknown target localization by modellingtensor signals [26ndash28] At present there are few studies ontensor-based FDA MIMO target estimation methods epaper proposes the algorithm based on parallel factorizationin monostatic FDA-MIMO radar is method first estab-lishes a third-order tensor signal model and uses parallelfactorization to obtain the transmission directionmatrix andthe reception direction matrix [29 30] en obtain theangle and distance information of the target by taking thephase of the directionmatrix and finally realize the angle anddistance estimation

e proposed method compares the achievement withtraditional estimation of signal parameters via rotationalinvariance techniques (ESPRIT) method [31] Unitary ES-PRIT method [32] and CramerndashRao Bound (CRB) epaper structure is divided into multiple parts Section 2introduces the tensor-based data model Section 3 deducesthe method of angle estimation and distance estimationeCRB of the target estimationmethod in FDA-MIMO radar isshown in Section 4 e Section 5 shows the simulationresults

We apply the tensor signal model and parallel factordecomposition to the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar andderive the PARAFAC-based angle and range estimationmethod In the following section we will derive the methodin more detail

3 The Proposed Method

31 Parallel FactorDecomposition In this section accordingto the trilinear alternating least square (TALS) method we

can estimate the transmitting direction matrix and the re-ceiving direction matrix e TALS method can be exploredfor data analysis in trilinear models

According to [33] the estimation of the directionmatrices can be obtained by the parallel factor decompo-sition e least squares (LS) update of equation (3) iswritten by

For the received noise signals according to the trilineardecomposition we can get the estimated parameter ma-trices 1113954AT ATΛM1 + N1 1113954AR ARΛM2 + N2 and1113954B BΛM3 + N3 where Λ is a permutation matrix N1 N2and N3 stand for the matrices in correspondence to esti-mation errors and M1 M2 and M3 denote the diagonalscaling matrices and are subject to M1M2M3 IK e in-herent scale ambiguity and permutation of trilinear de-composition and normalization can be used to eliminatescale ambiguity

32 Angle Estimation From the trilinear decomposition inthe previous section we can get estimates of the directionmatrices 1113954AT and 1113954AR by the TALS method

It can be seen from the signal model that the steervector of 1113954AR is only related to the direction of arrival(DOA) and we can get the estimated value of the anglethrough 1113954AR

In the paper the receive array can be preset as half-wavelengths spaced uniform linear arrays (ULA) so thereceive steering vector of θk is

ar θk( 1113857 1 ejπ sin θk( ) e

jπ(Nminus 1)sin θk( )1113876 1113877T

(15)

Let ψr denote the phase of ar(θk) which can beexpressed as

ψr angle ar θk( 1113857( 1113857 0 π sin θk π(N minus 1)sin θk1113858 1113859T

(16)

After the receiving steering vector is well calibrated it isrepresented as 1113954ar(θk) and utilizes normalization to dispelscale ambiguity So 1113954ψr can be obtained from equation (16)e estimate of sin θk can be calculated by LS principle Wecan construct the LS fitting as

Gq 1113954ψ (17)

where the q isin C2times1 and 1113954ψ stand for the estimated vector andthe estimated phase of steering vector G is defined as

where 1113954qr(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector1113954qr

33 Range Estimation For the tensor-based data model therange and transmit angle of the uncorrelated target are bothincluded in the transmit steering vector So the transmitsteering vector can be expressed as

at θk rk( 1113857 at θk( 1113857 ∘ at rk( 1113857 (21)

whereat(θk) [1 e(minus j2πd sin(θkλ0)) e(minus j2πd(Mminus 1)sin(θkλ0))]T andat(rk) [1 e(minus j2π2Δf(rkc)) e(minus j2π2Δf(Mminus 1)rkc)]T denotethe transmitting angle steering vector and range steeringvector respectively

e transmit array is preset as half-wavelengths spacedULA so the transmitting steer vector of (θk rk) can bereduced as

where 1113954qt(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector 1113954qt

So far we already get the angle and range of the un-correlated target in the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar Wecan recap the key processes of the proposed method asfollows

(i) Step 1 according to equation (6) the received datais transformed into a third-order tensor model

(ii) Step 2 apply the trilinear decomposition principlewe can obtain the transmitting direction matrix 1113954AT

and the receiving direction matrix 1113954AR(iii) Step 3 take the phase 1113954qr and 1113954qt of 1113954AR and 1113954AT by

equations (16) and (23) respectively(iv) Step 4 the phase 1113954ψr of the receive direction matrix

was plugged into equation (17) and obtain 1113954qr by LSfitting then the receive angle 1113954θr can be calculated byequation (20)

(v) Step 5 similarly we can obtain1113954qt then the range 1113954rk

of target can be calculated by substituting the angleinto equation (25)

where V represents the number of successful estimates andthe criterion for the success of the angle and range exper-iments is that the absolute value of all experimental nu-merical errors are less than the minimum 01deg and 01 kmrespectively

We preset SNR 20 dB in the first simulation Figure 3shows the estimation results of our proposed methodFigure 3 shows the estimation of the range and angle of theuncorrelated targets are correct and the landing points arehighly concentrated It directly proves the stability andaccuracy of the proposed method

And then L denotes the number of snapshots and it ispreset to L 50 in this simulation We first investigate theliaison between RMSE and SNR of range estimation andangle estimation in the second simulation We use twocomparison methods which are the ESPRIT method [31]and the Unitary ESPRIT method [32] respectively Afterintroducing CRB they are compared with the proposedmethod Figures 4 and 5 correspond to the simulation Fromthe two figures it can be demonstrated that the estimatedperformance of the proposed method is better than theESPRIT method and the Unitary ESPRIT method In ad-dition the RMSE of the proposed method is closer to CRB

Mathematical Problems in Engineering 5

From the following we explore the relationshipbetween RMSE and snapshots of range estimation andangle estimation in the third simulation and the resultsare shown in Figures 6 and 7 respectively e SNR

10 dB is preset in this simulation Similar to the firstsimulation after introducing CRB we use the contrastmethods to compare with the proposed algorithm As thenumber of snapshots increase we can know from thefigures that the RMSE of three methods and CRB alldecrease So we conclude that the accuracy of themethods is improving and the proposed method has thebest performance

In the fourth simulation the relationship betweenprobability and SNR of angle and range probability

successful detection is obtained e number of snapshots ispreset to L 50 Figures 8 and 9 correspond to the fourthsimulation From two figures we can know the success rateof three methods can reach 100 with the increase of SNRMoreover with the increase of SNR the probability ofsuccessful detection also increases It can reach a detectionsuccess rate of 100 when the SNR reaches a sufficientlyhigh level this SNR is generally called the SNR thresholdObviously the threshold of the proposed method is thelowest among the three methods which also illustrates thesuperiority of the proposed method

We apply the tensor signal model and parallel factordecomposition to the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar andderive the PARAFAC-based angle and range estimationmethod In the following section we will derive the methodin more detail

3 The Proposed Method

31 Parallel FactorDecomposition In this section accordingto the trilinear alternating least square (TALS) method we

can estimate the transmitting direction matrix and the re-ceiving direction matrix e TALS method can be exploredfor data analysis in trilinear models

According to [33] the estimation of the directionmatrices can be obtained by the parallel factor decompo-sition e least squares (LS) update of equation (3) iswritten by

where 1113954AT and 1113954AR stand for the estimates ofAT andAR whichhave previously obtained respectively e LS fitting ofequation (7) can be written as

For the received noise signals according to the trilineardecomposition we can get the estimated parameter ma-trices 1113954AT ATΛM1 + N1 1113954AR ARΛM2 + N2 and1113954B BΛM3 + N3 where Λ is a permutation matrix N1 N2and N3 stand for the matrices in correspondence to esti-mation errors and M1 M2 and M3 denote the diagonalscaling matrices and are subject to M1M2M3 IK e in-herent scale ambiguity and permutation of trilinear de-composition and normalization can be used to eliminatescale ambiguity

32 Angle Estimation From the trilinear decomposition inthe previous section we can get estimates of the directionmatrices 1113954AT and 1113954AR by the TALS method

It can be seen from the signal model that the steervector of 1113954AR is only related to the direction of arrival(DOA) and we can get the estimated value of the anglethrough 1113954AR

In the paper the receive array can be preset as half-wavelengths spaced uniform linear arrays (ULA) so thereceive steering vector of θk is

ar θk( 1113857 1 ejπ sin θk( ) e

jπ(Nminus 1)sin θk( )1113876 1113877T

(15)

Let ψr denote the phase of ar(θk) which can beexpressed as

ψr angle ar θk( 1113857( 1113857 0 π sin θk π(N minus 1)sin θk1113858 1113859T

(16)

After the receiving steering vector is well calibrated it isrepresented as 1113954ar(θk) and utilizes normalization to dispelscale ambiguity So 1113954ψr can be obtained from equation (16)e estimate of sin θk can be calculated by LS principle Wecan construct the LS fitting as

Gq 1113954ψ (17)

where the q isin C2times1 and 1113954ψ stand for the estimated vector andthe estimated phase of steering vector G is defined as

1113954qr is the LS solution of qr by equation (17) which stands forthe estimated vector and can be expressed as

1113954qr GTG1113872 1113873minus 1GT 1113954ψr (19)

1113954qr(2)( 1113857 (20)

where 1113954qr(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector1113954qr

33 Range Estimation For the tensor-based data model therange and transmit angle of the uncorrelated target are bothincluded in the transmit steering vector So the transmitsteering vector can be expressed as

at θk rk( 1113857 at θk( 1113857 ∘ at rk( 1113857 (21)

whereat(θk) [1 e(minus j2πd sin(θkλ0)) e(minus j2πd(Mminus 1)sin(θkλ0))]T andat(rk) [1 e(minus j2π2Δf(rkc)) e(minus j2π2Δf(Mminus 1)rkc)]T denotethe transmitting angle steering vector and range steeringvector respectively

e transmit array is preset as half-wavelengths spacedULA so the transmitting steer vector of (θk rk) can bereduced as

In the previous section the direction of arrival (DOA) 1113954θk

has been obtained Referring to the derivation process in theprevious section and letting ψt represent the phase ofat(rk θk) which can be expressed as

where 1113954qt(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector 1113954qt

So far we already get the angle and range of the un-correlated target in the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar Wecan recap the key processes of the proposed method asfollows

(i) Step 1 according to equation (6) the received datais transformed into a third-order tensor model

(ii) Step 2 apply the trilinear decomposition principlewe can obtain the transmitting direction matrix 1113954AT

and the receiving direction matrix 1113954AR(iii) Step 3 take the phase 1113954qr and 1113954qt of 1113954AR and 1113954AT by

equations (16) and (23) respectively(iv) Step 4 the phase 1113954ψr of the receive direction matrix

was plugged into equation (17) and obtain 1113954qr by LSfitting then the receive angle 1113954θr can be calculated byequation (20)

(v) Step 5 similarly we can obtain1113954qt then the range 1113954rk

of target can be calculated by substituting the angleinto equation (25)

where 1113954B and 1113954AT on behalf of the estimates ofB andAT whichhave previously obtained respectively

According to equations (10) (12) and (14) B AT andAR are given by the LS e LS update does not stop untilconvergence and the constraint condition can be expressedas 1113957X minus [1113954AT ⊙ 1113954AR]1113954B

For the received noise signals according to the trilineardecomposition we can get the estimated parameter ma-trices 1113954AT ATΛM1 + N1 1113954AR ARΛM2 + N2 and1113954B BΛM3 + N3 where Λ is a permutation matrix N1 N2and N3 stand for the matrices in correspondence to esti-mation errors and M1 M2 and M3 denote the diagonalscaling matrices and are subject to M1M2M3 IK e in-herent scale ambiguity and permutation of trilinear de-composition and normalization can be used to eliminatescale ambiguity

32 Angle Estimation From the trilinear decomposition inthe previous section we can get estimates of the directionmatrices 1113954AT and 1113954AR by the TALS method

It can be seen from the signal model that the steervector of 1113954AR is only related to the direction of arrival(DOA) and we can get the estimated value of the anglethrough 1113954AR

In the paper the receive array can be preset as half-wavelengths spaced uniform linear arrays (ULA) so thereceive steering vector of θk is

ar θk( 1113857 1 ejπ sin θk( ) e

jπ(Nminus 1)sin θk( )1113876 1113877T

(15)

Let ψr denote the phase of ar(θk) which can beexpressed as

ψr angle ar θk( 1113857( 1113857 0 π sin θk π(N minus 1)sin θk1113858 1113859T

(16)

After the receiving steering vector is well calibrated it isrepresented as 1113954ar(θk) and utilizes normalization to dispelscale ambiguity So 1113954ψr can be obtained from equation (16)e estimate of sin θk can be calculated by LS principle Wecan construct the LS fitting as

Gq 1113954ψ (17)

where the q isin C2times1 and 1113954ψ stand for the estimated vector andthe estimated phase of steering vector G is defined as

where 1113954qr(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector1113954qr

33 Range Estimation For the tensor-based data model therange and transmit angle of the uncorrelated target are bothincluded in the transmit steering vector So the transmitsteering vector can be expressed as

at θk rk( 1113857 at θk( 1113857 ∘ at rk( 1113857 (21)

whereat(θk) [1 e(minus j2πd sin(θkλ0)) e(minus j2πd(Mminus 1)sin(θkλ0))]T andat(rk) [1 e(minus j2π2Δf(rkc)) e(minus j2π2Δf(Mminus 1)rkc)]T denotethe transmitting angle steering vector and range steeringvector respectively

e transmit array is preset as half-wavelengths spacedULA so the transmitting steer vector of (θk rk) can bereduced as

where 1113954qt(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector 1113954qt

So far we already get the angle and range of the un-correlated target in the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar Wecan recap the key processes of the proposed method asfollows

(i) Step 1 according to equation (6) the received datais transformed into a third-order tensor model

(ii) Step 2 apply the trilinear decomposition principlewe can obtain the transmitting direction matrix 1113954AT

and the receiving direction matrix 1113954AR(iii) Step 3 take the phase 1113954qr and 1113954qt of 1113954AR and 1113954AT by

equations (16) and (23) respectively(iv) Step 4 the phase 1113954ψr of the receive direction matrix

was plugged into equation (17) and obtain 1113954qr by LSfitting then the receive angle 1113954θr can be calculated byequation (20)

(v) Step 5 similarly we can obtain1113954qt then the range 1113954rk

of target can be calculated by substituting the angleinto equation (25)

which stands for the estimated transmit receive vector andcan be expressed as

1113954qt GTG1113872 1113873minus 1GT 1113954ψt (24)

e range 1113954rk of target is derived from

1113954rk c sin 1113954θk minus 1113954qt(2)1113872 1113873

4Δf (25)

where 1113954qt(2) represents the element in the second row of thevector 1113954qt

So far we already get the angle and range of the un-correlated target in the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar Wecan recap the key processes of the proposed method asfollows

(i) Step 1 according to equation (6) the received datais transformed into a third-order tensor model

(ii) Step 2 apply the trilinear decomposition principlewe can obtain the transmitting direction matrix 1113954AT

and the receiving direction matrix 1113954AR(iii) Step 3 take the phase 1113954qr and 1113954qt of 1113954AR and 1113954AT by

equations (16) and (23) respectively(iv) Step 4 the phase 1113954ψr of the receive direction matrix

was plugged into equation (17) and obtain 1113954qr by LSfitting then the receive angle 1113954θr can be calculated byequation (20)

(v) Step 5 similarly we can obtain1113954qt then the range 1113954rk

of target can be calculated by substituting the angleinto equation (25)

5 Simulation Results

In this section the effectiveness and advantages of ourproposed method can be proved by some numerical sim-ulations e ESPRITmethod and Unitary-ESPRITmethodcan be utilized to contrast with our proposed method Wedefault the monostatic FDA-MIMO radar with M 8transmitting antennas and N 8 receiving antennas in thispaper

Unless otherwise specified it is supposed that there areK 3 uncorrelated targets which are objected to far-fielde three targets are placed at (θ1 r1) (minus 15deg 05 km)(θ2 r2) (10deg 6 km) and (θ3 r3) (35deg 80 km) e per-formance of our proposed method can be appraised by theroot mean square error (RMSE) which can be expressed as

In addition the probability of successful detection isanother metric used to appraise the achievement of ourmethod which is defined by

PSD V

Ttimes 100 (30)

where V represents the number of successful estimates andthe criterion for the success of the angle and range exper-iments is that the absolute value of all experimental nu-merical errors are less than the minimum 01deg and 01 kmrespectively

We preset SNR 20 dB in the first simulation Figure 3shows the estimation results of our proposed methodFigure 3 shows the estimation of the range and angle of theuncorrelated targets are correct and the landing points arehighly concentrated It directly proves the stability andaccuracy of the proposed method

And then L denotes the number of snapshots and it ispreset to L 50 in this simulation We first investigate theliaison between RMSE and SNR of range estimation andangle estimation in the second simulation We use twocomparison methods which are the ESPRIT method [31]and the Unitary ESPRIT method [32] respectively Afterintroducing CRB they are compared with the proposedmethod Figures 4 and 5 correspond to the simulation Fromthe two figures it can be demonstrated that the estimatedperformance of the proposed method is better than theESPRIT method and the Unitary ESPRIT method In ad-dition the RMSE of the proposed method is closer to CRB

Mathematical Problems in Engineering 5

From the following we explore the relationshipbetween RMSE and snapshots of range estimation andangle estimation in the third simulation and the resultsare shown in Figures 6 and 7 respectively e SNR

10 dB is preset in this simulation Similar to the firstsimulation after introducing CRB we use the contrastmethods to compare with the proposed algorithm As thenumber of snapshots increase we can know from thefigures that the RMSE of three methods and CRB alldecrease So we conclude that the accuracy of themethods is improving and the proposed method has thebest performance

In the fourth simulation the relationship betweenprobability and SNR of angle and range probability

successful detection is obtained e number of snapshots ispreset to L 50 Figures 8 and 9 correspond to the fourthsimulation From two figures we can know the success rateof three methods can reach 100 with the increase of SNRMoreover with the increase of SNR the probability ofsuccessful detection also increases It can reach a detectionsuccess rate of 100 when the SNR reaches a sufficientlyhigh level this SNR is generally called the SNR thresholdObviously the threshold of the proposed method is thelowest among the three methods which also illustrates thesuperiority of the proposed method
