In this paper, a robust subspace-based DOA estimation and arrayauto-calibration algorithm is proposed for uniformly linear array (ULA), when the arraymutual coupling is present. Based on a banded symmetric Toeplitz matrix model for themutual coupling of ULA, the algorithm provides an accurate and high-resolution DOAestimate without any knowledge of the array mutual couplings. Moreover, a favorableestimate of mutual coupling matrix can also be achieved simultaneously for arrayauto-calibration. The algorithm is realized just via one-dimensional search or polynomialrooting, with no multidimensional nonlinear search or convergence burden involved. Theproblem of parameter ambiguity, statistically consistence and efficiency of the newestimator are also analyzed. Monte-Carlo simulation results are also provided todemonstrate the effectiveness and behavior of the proposed algorithm.展开更多
