In order to estimate direction of arrival(DOA)of coherent signals in multi-path propagation
a new estimation algorithm DOA-CSAA is proposed. The generalized steering vector corresponding to each user is estimated by jointly adopting the time-domain and space-domain correlations. Then the direction-of-arrival of every multi-path is estimated within each user's group. The proposed method
which is capable of identifying more DOAs than the methods that are based on fourth-order statistics
uses second-order statistics only
hence its computational complexity is much lower. Since the forward/backward spatial smoothing technique is not adopted in the proposed method
arbitrary geometry arrays are applicable. The method can estimate at most M(M-1)impinging DOAs using an arbitrary geometry array
with M antennae. Simulation results and comparison with the forward/backward spatial smoothing techniques under the same simulation conditions show that the DOA-CSAA can obtain nearly 20 dB signal-to-noise ratio gain when the root mean square error of approximation is between10
