A novel direction of arrival and polarization estimation of electromagnetic vector sensors mounted on the airframe is proposed based on biquaternion. The signal processing model for EM-sensor mounted on the airframe is made by biquaternion and then the eigenvalue decomposition of spectral matrix is obtained by means of the EVD of its quaternion adjoint matrix. The memory requirement for data is reduced, and more accurate estimation result is gotten by deducing the stronger orthogonality constraint between the sin- gal and noise subspaces on the field of biquaternion. The performance of the new algorithm is confirmed through numerical examples.
