Abstract :
The authors present a variant of ESPRIT, known as the resolution enhanced (RE)-ESPRIT, that lowers resolution thresholds by incorporating left weighting of the signal eigenvectors to provide sector focusing. They discuss the advantages of this new left weighted ESPRIT. A compact expression for the asymptotic covariance matrix of the estimates is presented. Analytical and simulation results are included to show the resolution improvement of ESPRIT
