Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation problem of noncircular signals for coprime linear array (CLA). From the perspective of the CLA as extracted from a filled uniform linear array (ULA), a noncircular root-MUSIC algorithm is proposed to estimate the DOA which can avoid the spectral peak search and lower the computational complexity. Due to the noncircular characteristic, the proposed algorithm enables to resolve more sources than sensors. Meanwhile, the proposed algorithm has better angle estimation performance than some conventional DOA estimation algorithms. Numerical simulation results illustrate the performance of the proposed method.
