Abstract
We propose a low complexity method for estimating direction of arrival (DOA) when the positions of the array sensors are affected by errors with known magnitude bound. This robust DOA method is based on solving an optimization problem whose solution is obtained in two stages. First, the problem is relaxed and the corresponding power estimation has an expression similar to that of standard beamforming. If the relaxed solution does not satisfy the magnitude bound, an approximation is made by projection. Unlike other robust DOA methods, no eigenvalue decomposition is necessary and the complexity is similar to that of MVDR. For low and medium SNR, the proposed method competes well with more complex methods and is clearly better than MVDR.
