摘要:A novel algorithm for finding the optimal solution of nonlinear function in maximum likelihood DOA estimation is proposed to reduce the calculation in multi-dimensional nonlinear search of the estimation. In the proposed method, firstly, the mode of population initialization mode is modified to improve the stability of population evolution. Secondly, the crossover operator is also improved to enlarge the range of new generated individual. Thirdly, parameters adaptive adjustment strategy is designed to accelerate convergence. The simulation shows that the proposed algorithm can greatly reduce the calculation time.
