Sparse array direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation using tensor model has been developed to handle multidimensional sub-Nyquist sampled signals. Furthermore, augmented virtual arrays can be derived for Nyquist-matched coarray tensor processing. However, the partially augmentable sparse array corresponds to a discontinuous virtual array, whereas the existing methods can only utilize its continuous part. Conventional virtual linear array interpolation techniques complete coarray covariance matrices with dispersed missing elements, but fail to complete the coarray tensor with whole missing slices. In this article, we propose a coarray tensor completion algorithm for 2-D DOA estimation, where the coarray tensor statistics can be entirely exploited. In particular, in order to impose an effective low-rank regularization on the slice-missing coarray tensor, we propose shift dimensional augmenting and coarray tensor …
