In  this  paper,  we  propose  an  approach  to estimate  the  Direction  of  Arrival  (DOA)  of  Radio coherent  incoming  signals  using  the  Total  Forward  – Backward  Matrix  Pencil  algorithm  (TFBMP).  This algorithm  works  directly  on  samples  of  signals impinging  on  an  M  –  element  Uniform  Circular Antenna (UCA) array, which has a smaller size as well as  larger  observation  angle  in  comparison  with  the Uniform  Linear  Antenna  (ULA)  array.  Therefore,  the correlation  between  the  received  signals  does  not significantly  impact  on  its performance  and  efficiency. Furthermore,  this algorithm  can  also  extract  the  DOA information  with  only  one  snapshot  of  signal. Simulation  results  for  DOA  estimation  using  the proposed approach for different situations of  incoming signals  as  well  as  the  number  of  snapshots  in  the presence  of  noise  will  be  assessed  to  verify  its performance.

A study of a two-dimensional state-space balance (2D SSB) method for estimating direction of arrival (DOA) for uniform rectangular array (URA) is presented in this letter. The comprehensive utilization of controllability and observability matrices and automatic pairing technique are considered in this method by using the single snapshot. Therefore, the DOAs of elevation angle and azimuth angle can pair automatically and acquire better estimation performance compared with 2D matrix pencil method or unitary matrix pencil method. In addition, the proposed method can handle correlated signals directly without preprocessing. Simulation is conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
