Abstract :
Presents some numerical methods for extracting wave direction from sensor phase measurements. A single ring circular array is considered. Some discussion of optimality is given. RMS error due to measurement noise is derived. A simulation program is described and some results of its exercise are given. Finally, some thoughts on implementation and future work are presented.
