Abstract :
In presence of general array error in a uniform circular arrays (UCAs), estimation of azimuth and elevation for a source is proposed. Based on array manifold in UCAs, the spatial frequency that is related to DOA is gained and theoretical expression for its asymptotic variance and the Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) of estimation is derived. The ambiguous problem is analyzed. The azimuth and elevation of source are estimated by weighted total least squares. The results of simulation show that the performance of the estimation is close to the CRB.
