Abstract:

The root multiple signal classification (root-MUSIC) algorithm is one of the most important techniques for direction of arrival (DOA) estimation. Using a uniform linear array (ULA) composed of M sensors, this method usually estimates Lsignal DOAs by finding roots that lie closest to the unit circle of a (2M−1)-order polynomial, where L
