Based on MUSIC-LIKE algorithm, an improved algorithm for multiple source direction of arrival estimation was proposed to resolve the problem, the enabled estimation number of source for traditional direction of arrival estimation algorithm restricted by the size of the antenna array. The computations and the matrix dimension were reduced by constructed new fourth cumulate matrix, the number of direction estimation was increased by smoothing computation snapshots based on MFOCMUSIC algorithm. The spatial spectrum measuring error was decreased by smoothing the virtual array extended by fourth order cumulate. Simulation results proved that the proposed algorithm can find more direction of arrival than MFOC-MUSIC algorithm, improve the direction of arrival resolution ratio, and inhibit the influence of gaussian white noise to direction of arrival estimation

A new technique for high-resolution direction of arrival estimation is presented. The method utilizes the traditional Bartlett spectra and sparse representation to locate emitters in single and multiple emitter scenarios. A method for selecting the sparse representation regularization parameter is also presented. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we show that the proposed approach achieves accurate direction of arrival (DOA) estimations that are unbiased and a variance that approaches the Cramer–Rao lower bound. We show that our method outperforms the popular MUSIC algorithm, and is slightly better than the sparse representation based L1-SVD algorithm when angular separation between emitters is small, signal SNR is low, and a small number of snapshots are used in DOA estimation.

Direction of arrival (DOA) estimation has, for quite some time been a challenging situation in most of the wireless communication applications, radar and sonar. The resolution of the direction of arrival estimation can be increased using the help of array signal processing. The performance of the direction of arrival estimation for multiple input multiple output(MIMO) radar systems has been reviewed for cyclic Multiple Signal Classification(MUSIC), extended cyclic MUSIC and Wideband cyclic MUSIC under Rayleigh fading environment. MUSIC and its variants have been taken into consideration for the analysis as these have been a very good parameter estimation technique due its low cost, high resolution and stability. Direction of Arrival estimation clubbed with cyclostationarity has been included into the new algorithm because of its immunity to noise and interference. The new algorithm along with cyclic correlations when applied to these signals, improves the performance of the entire system substantially. The performance of this wideband cyclic MUSIC high resolution direction of arrival estimation algorithm over the Rayleigh fading is analyzed in this paper. The simulation results citing the three methods show the performance of these methods in presence of the fading environments.
