Abstract

A new MUSIC algorithm for direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation is developed, based on the multi-stage Wiener filter (MSWF). Unlike the classical MUSIC algorithm, the proposed method only involves the forward recursions of the MSWF to find the noise subspace, even in the case of coherent signals, and does not require the estimate of an array covariance matrix or its eigendecomposition. Therefore, the proposed method is computationally advantageous over the classical MUSIC algorithm that resorts to computing the sample covariance matrix and its eigenvectors. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated by numerical results.
