Direction of arrival estimation in passive radar based on deep neural network

Abstract Most traditional direction of arrival (DOA) estimation methods in passive radar are based on the parametric model of the antenna array manifold, and lack the adaption to the array errors. The data‐driven machine learning‐based methods have great array error adaption capability. However, mos...
