Direction-of-arrival (DOA) of radio signals takes a great scientific interest for radar, sonar and wireless communication tasks. In this paper the problem of DOA estimation methods for circular and concentric circular antenna arrays is considered. The super-resolution method MUSIC is researched. The performances are estimated in various noise environments and for various geometries of antenna arrays. Additionally, the problem of false peaks occurring in spatial spectrum is closely considered. Probability of occurring false peaks after computer simulations is presented.

Influence of the Aperture Edge Diffraction Effects on the Mutual Coupling Compensation Technique in Small Planar Antenna Arrays In this paper the quality of a technique to compensate for mutual coupling (and other phenomena) in small linear antenna arrays is investigated. The technique consists in calculation of a coupling matrix, which is than used to determine corrected antenna array excitation coefficients. Although the technique is known for more than 20 years, there is still very little information about how different phenomena existing in a real antenna arrays influence its performance. In this paper two models of antenna arrays are used. In the first model the effect of mutual coupling is separated from the aperture edge diffraction. In the second model antenna both mutual coupling and aperture edge diffraction effects are included. It is shown that mutual coupling itself can be compensated very well and an ultralow sidelobe level (i.e. -50 dB) could be achieved in practice. In the presence of diffraction effects -46.3 dB sidelobe level has been attained, but radiation pattern can be controled only in narrow angle range (i.e. up to ±60°).
