Fast detection of coherent signals using pre-conditioned root-MUSIC based on Toeplitz matrix reconstruction

This paper presents a fast approach for detecting coherent signals encountered in mul-tipath propagation environment. The developed approach utilizes a Toeplitz matrix reconstruction method along with DOA estimation using Root-MUSIC. The proposed approach exhibits several features such as robustness, high accuracy, and computational efficiency. Nevertheless, the primary advantage of the proposed Toeplitz-based de-correlation scheme is the fast detection of the maximum possible number of coherent signals, without the need of iteration and re-estimation.
