Abstract

Facilitation of determination of detailed location of a source signal is provided. In one embodiment, a device comprises a memory that stores computer executable components; and a processor that executes computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can comprise: a low-resolution computation logic component that implements a coarse algorithm and determines an approximate direction of arrival (DOA) of a source signal of an input signal, wherein the coarse algorithm uses both a coarse spatial grid and input data received from the input signal to determine the approximate DOA; and an error estimation logic component that estimates an estimation error of the coarse algorithm, and wherein the error estimation logic component uses the estimation error and the approximate DOA to determine a spatial interval range.
