  We introduce a new method for the estimation of the angular parameters [i.e.,
central directions of arrival (DOAs) and angular spreads] of multiple
non-circular and incoherently-distributed (ID) sources and thoroughly analyze
its performance. By decoupling the estimation of the central DOAs from that of
the angular spreads, we reduce significantly the complexity of the proposed
technique. The latter outperforms most well-known state-of-the-art techniques
in terms of estimation accuracy and robustness.
