Abstract
The iterative quadratic maximum likelihood (IQML) is an efficient approach for estimating the directions of arrival (DOA) of signals impinging on a uniform linear array. It is desirable to apply the IQML method in beamspace so as to take advantage of the benefits of beamspace operations in terms of reduced computational complexity and improved resolution thresholds. The difficulty with beamspace IQML is that the Vandermonde structure of the array manifold may not preserve during the beamspace transformation. We tackle this obstacle using discrete Fourier transform (DFT) beams and derive a parameterized polynomial in the beamspace dimension. The proposed beamspace IQML algorithm is computationally efficient, and provides satisfactory estimation results.
