A Novel Coherence Reduction Method in Compressed Sensing for DOA Estimation
A novel method named as coherent column replacement method is proposed to reduce the coherence of a partially deterministic sensing matrix, which is comprised of highly coherent columns and random Gaussian columns. The proposed method is to replace the highly coherent columns with random Gaussian columns to obtain a new sensing matrix. The measurement vector is changed accordingly. It is proved that the original sparse signal could be reconstructed well from the newly changed measurement vector based on the new sensing matrix with large probability. This method is then extended to a more practical condition when highly coherent columns and incoherent columns are considered, for example, the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation problem in phased array radar system using compressed sensing. Numerical simulations show that the proposed method succeeds in identifying multiple targets in a sparse radar scene, where the compressed sensing method based on the original sensing matrix fails. The proposed method also obtains more precise estimation of DOA using one snapshot compared with the traditional estimation methods such as Capon, APES, and GLRT, based on hundreds of snapshots

Cramer-Rao Bound for Sparse Signals Fitting the Low-Rank Model with Small Number of Parameters
In this paper, we consider signals with a low-rank covariance matrix which
reside in a low-dimensional subspace and can be written in terms of a finite
(small) number of parameters. Although such signals do not necessarily have a
sparse representation in a finite basis, they possess a sparse structure which
makes it possible to recover the signal from compressed measurements. We study
the statistical performance bound for parameter estimation in the low-rank
signal model from compressed measurements. Specifically, we derive the
Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) for a generic low-rank model and we show that the number
of compressed samples needs to be larger than the number of sources for the
existence of an unbiased estimator with finite estimation variance. We further
consider the applications to direction-of-arrival (DOA) and spectral estimation
which fit into the low-rank signal model. We also investigate the effect of
compression on the CRB by considering numerical examples of the DOA estimation
scenario, and show how the CRB increases by increasing the compression or
equivalently reducing the number of compressed samples.Comment: 14 pages, 1 figure, Submitted to IEEE Signal Processing Letters on
