Abstract

High-resolution parameter estimation algorithms designed to benefit from the presence of non-circular (NC) source signals allow for an increased identifiability and a lower estimation error. In this paper, we present a 1-D first-order performance analysis of the NC standard ESPRIT and NC Unitary ESPRIT estimation schemes for strictly second-order (SO) non-circular sources, where NC Unitary ESPRIT has a lower complexity and a better performance in the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. Our derived expressions are asymptotic in the effective SNR and explicit in the noise realizations, i.e., no assumptions about the noise statistics are necessary. As a main result, we show that the asymptotic performance of both NC ESPRIT-type algorithms is identical in the effective SNR and that NC Unitary ESPRIT is even applicable to array geometries without a centro-symmetric structure as required for Unitary ESPRIT.
