Abstract
A processor and method for extracting or estimating directions of arrival of signals from a received data vector x(t) which has been corrupted by interfering signals and noise is described. The processor extracts signals by forming the scalar product of x(t) and a weight vector which is chosen such that the spectral self-coherence or conjugate spectral self-coherence of the processor output is maximized. The processor estimates the directions of arrival of signals by spectral self-coherence-selective performance surfaces for maxima.
