This paper addresses the issue of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation with an objective to eliminate the off-grid effect of the sparsity-based methods and enlarge the maximum number of distinguishable signals in the subspace-based methods. We first reconstruct the covariance matrix of the array output in the Toeplitz structure and then employ the reconstructed covariance matrix together with root-MUSIC to estimate the DOAs. The proposed covariance matrix reconstruction approach (CMRA) can be used for uniform and sparse linear arrays. It can also estimate the DOAs of multiple signals that are larger than the number of sensors by taking advantage of the array geometry. In contrast to the sparsity-based methods, CMRA is formulated in the continuous angle space rather than the discretized one, and hence it is immune to the off-grid effect. Simulations are carried out to verify the effectiveness of our method.
