Abstract :
The paper presents a novel approach to estimate the directions of arrival recursively as measurements of incident signals are received along a sensor array. Using a single snapshot, and without any statistical assumptions, the proposed method employs a robust performance criterion based on worst-case gain minimization. The performance of the new approach is evaluated by simulating the estimation algorithm for a linear array and comparing its performance to that of an existing single-snapshot algorithm.
