We propose a novel algorithm for the problem of nonorthogonal joint diagonalization of a set of structured matrices based on successive Jacobi-like transformations. Though the elementary transformation matrices we use are not optimal in the sense of the global criterion, they are ensured to be nonsingular, and can be computed in closed form. The algorithm is efficient in virtue of its low computational complexity and fast convergence. The performance of the new algorithm is compared in simulations to the similar algorithms of the recent literature.
