To solve this problem, a fast underwater acoustic target direction of arrival estimation was proposed. Analyzing the model characteristics of block-sparse Bayesian learning framework for DOA estimation, an algorithm was proposed to obtain the value of core hyper-parameter through MacKay's fixed-point method to estimate the DOA. By this process, it will spend less time for computation and provide more superior recovery performance than TMSBL algorithm. Simulation results verified the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.展开更多
