Abstract :
This paper consider the problem of resolving signal received by an array of crossed dipoles. A method is proposed to estimate directions of arrival (DOA) only, which requires far fewer computations than those of the existing methods and can be used to arbitrary geometry arrays. The computer simulations are given to illustrate the performance achieved by the proposed method
