Abstract :
This paper explores the simultaneous estimation method of the AOA and the polarization of the signals. Based on two differently polarized antennas, the simultaneous estimation is achieved with consideration of the cross-polar and co-polar patterns of the antennas. The performance of the method is analyzed. The validity is testified by the experiment of P-band radar system.
