Abstract :
The recently proposed spatial filtering, which is developed to effectively decorrelate coherent signals, is analyzed. It has been shown that any set of distinct preliminary estimates of directions of arrival (DOAs) can be used to obtain a full rank source covariance matrix. In addition, a particular signal enhancement approach is developed to minimize the effects of the sensor noise. Statistical analysis of the spatial filtering and its enhanced version are also studied using the Monte Carlo method
