Abstract:Aiming at the problem of low target detection rate and false intersection interference in multi station multi-target AOA passive positioning, a positioning algorithm based on density peak clustering was studied; By introducing the natural nearest neighbor (NNN) method to adaptively determine the neighborhood range of data points, and combining truncated kernel density and Gaussian kernel density to improve the local density calculation model, the adaptability of the algorithm to non-uniform density data is effectively enhanced; On this basis, the Hough transform (HT) is used to automatically detect the linear features in the decision value distribution, achieving fully automatic extraction of clustering centers; Simulation experiments show that within the range of direction finding error , the positioning accuracy is improved by 10% -30%, and the target detection rate in complex environments is improved by 10% -20%. In high error scenarios, the positioning error is only 65% of the baseline method, and the correlation accuracy reaches 92%; The experimental results have verified the robustness advantage of the algorithm in non ideal environments. By optimizing the neighborhood selection mechanism and density calculation model, it effectively reduces manual parameter intervention and provides an efficient and reliable solution for multi-target passive localization.
