COMPOSITE TENSOR BEAMFORMING METHOD FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC VECTOR COPRIME PLANAR ARRAY

The present invention belongs to the field of array signal processing and relates to a composite tensor beamforming method for an electromagnetic vector coprime planar array. The method includes: building an electromagnetic vector coprime planar array; performing tensor modeling of an electromagnetic vector coprime planar array receiving signal; designing a three-dimensional weight tensor corresponding to a coprime sparse uniform sub-planar array; forming a tensor beam power pattern of the coprime sparse uniform sub-planar array; and performing electromagnetic vector coprime planar array tensor beamforming based on coprime composite processing of the sparse uniform sub-planar array. Starting from the principles of receiving signal tensor spatial filtering of two sparse uniform sub-planar arrays that compose the electromagnetic vector coprime planar array, the present invention forms a coprime composite processing method based on a sparse uniform sub-planar array output signal.
