Firstly, using the properties of FRFT and mask processing, Multi-component LFM sig- nals are filtered and demodulated into a number of stationary single frequency signals. Then the one-dimensional (1-D) direction estimation of LFM signals can be achieved by combining with the tradi- tional spectrum search method in the fractional Fourier (FRF) domain. As for the multi-component LFM signals, there is no cross-term interference, the mean square error (MSE) and Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) are also analyzed which perfects the method theoretically, simulation results are provided to show the validity of our method. The proposed algorithm is also extended to the uniform circular array (UCA), which realizes the two-dimensional (2-D) estimation. Using the characteristics of time-frequen
