Improvement of 2-D DOA estimation with tapered Matrix Pencil algorithm

摘要

A new method for improvement of 2-D DOA estimation based on Matrix Pencil (MP) Method is presented. We show that with Tapering of the data matrix, the accuracy of azimuth and elevation estimation can be improved. The method directly applied to the algorithm and only with one snapshot of data, DOA can be estimated. The simulation results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
