            Abstract : 
A new algorithm based on ESPRIT is proposed for the estimation of the central angle and angular extension of distributed sources. The central angles are estimated using TLS-ESPRIT for both incoherently distributed (ID) and coherently distributed (CD) sources. For CD sources, the extension width is estimated by constructing a one-dimensional (1-D) distributed source parameter estimator (DSPE) spectrum for each source. For ID sources, the extension widths are estimated using the central moments of the distribution. The algorithm can be used for sources with different angular distributions
