Abstract :
This work presents a technique to determine the direction of arrival of a signal, in a linear or planar array of adaptive antennas, using a radial basis function neural network of modular structure. This technique aims getting better resolution for the estimation of the angle of arrival of a plane wave at the antenna array.
