Abstract
In this paper, the MUSIC 2D-DOA estimation is estimated by splitting the angle into elevation and azimuth components. This technique is based on an array that is composed by a vertical uniform linear array located perpendicularly at the center of another uniform circular array. This array configuration is proposed to reduce the computational burden faced in MUSIC 2D-DOA estimation where the vertical array is used to determine the elevation DOAs (θs) which are used subsequently to determine the azimuth DOAs (∅s) by the circular array instead of searching in all space of the two angles in the case of using circular array only. The new Split beamformer is investigated and the performance of the MUSIC 2D-DOA under several signal conditions in the presence of noise is studied.
