CHAOS signal has been drawing a lot of research interest recently due to its performance in security systems. In this paper, an approach to estimate the direction of target for Distributed Chaos Radar System using Total Forward - Backward Matrix Pencil (TFBMP) algorithm. This algorithm works directly on signal samples of signals received by M – element Uniform Linear Antenna array. Therefore, the correlation between the received signals does not significantly impact on its performance and efficiency. This fact permits us to estimate not only wideband incoherent signals but also wideband coherent signals. Furthermore, this algorithm can also extract the Direction Of Arrival (DOA) with only one snapshot of signal, which means that the sampling frequency in real time receivers can be considerably reduced. The simulation results for DOA of incoming CHAOS signals using the proposed approach will be shown and analyzed to verify its performance.
