Abstract: a new method for estimating spatial narrow-band signal directions of arrival in the presence of colored noise with unknown covariance is presented. A transform-based covariance differencing approach is given, thus overcoming the highly biased estimates. Without the eigendecomposition of the transformed data matrix, its advantage consists in a computational complexity reduced by the ratio of the number of sources to teh number of sensors. Finally, its performance is confirmed by computer simulations.

Key words: array signal processing, colored noise, DOA estimate
