Since the Matrix Pencil (MP) method can be performed to estimate multiple DOAs by using only single snapshot, this method is suitable for short data length or when the environment is dynamic. As the number of array increases, the computational load increases due to complex number computation. This paper presents an approach based on a unitary matrix pencil (MP) algorithm to reduce the computational load. Unitary transformation for the MP method has been suggested and formulated successfully. The computer simulation shows that the error rate of proposed method agree with that of MP for different SNR values.
