Abstract

See full text

Estimating an angle-of-arrival of a signal includes receiving a signal sent from an emitter. The signal is received at a singly polarized antenna system associated with an antenna response model. An autocorrelation matrix having noise-related eigenvectors is generated in response to the signal. Polarization ratios are determined from projections of a noise-related eigenvector onto the antenna response model. A minimum polarization ratio variance is established for the polarization ratios. A polarization vector corresponding to the minimum polarization ratio variance is identified. An angle-of-arrival of the signal is estimated in accordance with the identified polarization vector.
