We present a preprocessing technique that in conjunction with spatial smoothing circumvents the difficulty of direction-of-arrival estimation of coherent signals in the case of uniform circular arrays. Special consideration is given to problems arising in practice, such as mutual coupling and array geometry imperfections. Simulation results illustrating the performance of this scheme in conjunction with the MUSIC method are included.>
