Abstract :
Based on empirical evidence, it has been noted that signal-to-noise ratio detection thresholds typically are lower than resolution thresholds. This paper quantifies the difference between thresholds for the direction finding problem in which source locations are specified by a single angular coordinate (e.g. azimuth)
