N2 - In this paper, we consider the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation problem under the coexistence of noncircular and circular signals. By exploiting the difference between the circularity of noncircular and circular signals, a method is proposed, which estimates the DOAs of noncircular and circular signals separately. The maximum number of detectable directions by the proposed method is twice that by the MUSIC method. Furthermore, since the proposed method resolves noncircular and circular signals based on the circularity difference rather than the DOA difference, the proposed method performs well regardless of the DOA separation between noncircular and circular signals. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
