Based on the optimized coprime array (OpCA), we propose a real-valued Toeplitz matrix method. This article analyzes the feasibility of converting the manifold matrix of a virtual domain constructed from a physical array into a real-valued matrix, and the unitary estimation of signal parameters via rotational invariance technique is introduced to transform the equivalent received signal rearranged Toeplitz matrix into a real-valued matrix and obtain directions of arrival (DOAs). Moreover, the proposed method offers higher estimation accuracy. Simulations are demonstrated to prove the validity of this method.
