In array signal processing systems, the direction of arrival (DOA) and polarization signals based on uniform linear or rectangular sensor arrays are generally obtained by rotational invariance techniques (ESPRIT). However, since ESPRIT algorithm relies invariant structure received data, it cannot be applied to electromagnetic vector (EVSAs) featuring circular patterns. To overcome this limitation, a fourth-order cumulant-based is proposed in paper, for joint estimation DOA EVSA. The utilizes...

In inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) imaging, the conventional range-Doppler (RD) algorithm cannot obtain satisfactory imaging results for sparse aperture. Compressed sensing (CS) methods, such as typical iterative shrinkage and thresholding (ISTA), are often used in imaging. However, CS-based methods have high computational complexity difficulty setting parameters. To overcome shortcomings, a new deep unfolding network named complex-valued weighted learning ISTA (CV-WLISTA) is...
