The coherent l 1 ‐singular value decomposition ( l 1 ‐SVD) uses a non‐unitary coherent strategy for transferring different frequency bin data to a reference bin, which decreases the signal‐to‐error ratio (SER) in transferring, thereby leading to a decrease in accuracy in the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation. To cope with this problem, in this paper we propose a unitary coherent strategy that uses unitary focusing matrices for transferring data. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms the coherent l 1 ‐SVD method in accurate DOA estimation. © 2014 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
