A high-resolution direction-of-arrival estimation based on Bayesian method
Kewei Liu · 声学学报(英文版) · 2004
A Bayesian high-resolution direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimator is proposed based on the maximum a posteriori principle. The statistical performance of the Bayesian high-resolution DOA estimator is also investigated. Comparison with MUSIC and Maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) shows that the Bayesian method has higher resolution and more accurate estimates for either incoherent or coherent sources. It is also more robust in the case of low SNR.
