In recent years, the sources localization has noticed an increase in research conducted on the problem of mixed far-field sources (FFSs) and near-field sources (NFSs). The main assumption of the existing researches is that the signals should be uncorrelated. Therefore, they cannot be used for multipath environments. The present paper provides a method called components separation algorithm (CSA) for the localization of multiple mixed FFSs and NFSs, including uncorrelated, lowly correlated and coherent signals. Firstly, by constructing one special cumulant matrix, and using a MUSIC-based technique, the noncoherent DOA vector (NDOAV) is extracted. By constructing another special cumulant matrix, and with respect to NDOAV, an estimate of the range, as well as a signal classification is obtained for noncoherent sources. Then, by estimating their kurtosis, the noncoherent component and consequently the coherent one of the second cumulant matrix is obtained. Finally, by introducing a novel approach based on squaring, projection, spatial smoothing, array interpolation transform and coherent component restoring, the parameters of coherent signals in each coherent group are estimated separately. The CSA prevents severe loss of the aperture. Furthermore, it does not require any pairing. The simulation results validate its satisfactory performance in terms of estimation accuracy, resolution, computational complexity, reasonable classification, and also its robustness against lowly correlated sources.
