This paper considers the problem of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for narrowband source signals under the coexistence of gain-phase uncertainties and nonuniform noise. Firstly, by exploiting the low-rank property of the covariance of signal components, and the diagonal property of noise covariance, an optimization problem with low-rank constraints is formulated to estimate the nonuniform noise covariance matrix, which is then solved efficiently by the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). Secondly, a linear transformation operator is employed to construct a rank reduction (RARE) estimator, and subsequently an initial DOA and gain-phase uncertainties are obtained via one-dimensional (1-D) spectral search. With initial estimates, an augmented DOA estimation is finally achieved by constructing a weighted and structured sparse total least-squares (WSS-TLS) optimization problem, which is solved using the block coordinate descent algorithm. Simulation results show the s ....
