Abstract :
In this letter, the problem of estimating the directions of arrival (DOAs) of coherent electromagnetic waves impinging upon a uniform linear array (ULA) is considered. In particular, an efficient DOA estimation approach based on the support vector regression is assessed using experimental measurements. Moreover, the obtained results are compared with those yielded by the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm.
