Abstract
A statistical performance analysis of subspace-based direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithms in the presence of correlated observation noise with unknown covariance is presented. This analysis of five different estimation algorithms is unified by a single expression for the mean-squared DOA estimation error which is derived using a subspace perturbation expansion. The analysis assumes that only finite amount of array data is available.
