We propose a generalized form of entangled coherent states (ECS) and apply them in a multi-arm optical interferometer to estimate multiple phase shifts. We obtain the quantum Cramer-Rao bounds for both the linear and nonlinear parametrization protocols. Through analysis utilizing simultaneous estimation. we find that this generalized form of ECS gives better precision than the generalized NOON states (2013 Phys. Rev. Lett. 111 070403). Moreover, when compared with the independent estimation both the linear and nonlinear protocols have the same advantage in the relation to the number of parameters.
