Identifying the location of targets or the direction of arrival (DOA) of any signal is of critical importance for both civilian and tactical applications. This cutting-edge resource fully explains the latest developments in DOA estimation from the leading researchers in the field. You discover how DOA estimation is one of the main functional requirements for direction-finding smart antennas in next generation mobile and stealth communication systems. The first compiled book in the field, this in-depth reference covers a wide range of key topics, from DOA estimation methods and source localization problems, to specific applications of DOA estimation and experimental setup and results. The book also serves as an excellent text for graduate students and researchers studying in this area.
