Abstract :
A noise subspace process, based on the eigenvalue decomposition of an array correlation matrix, which uses an implementation of MUSIC algorithm in two dimensional (2-D) direction of arrival estimation (DOA) problems is proposed. Simulation results are presented, that illustrate the success of the process to determine the correct azimuth and elevation angles of signal wavefronts impinging on a special L-shape antenna array, consisting of two array branches placed on x and y axes.
