Abstract :
The statistical performance of using ESPRIT to estimate both the arrival directions and the polarizations of incoming plane waves with a uniform linear array of crossed dipoles is studied. Compact formulae for the mean-squared errors of both direction and polarization estimates are provided for both the case of large data samples and the case of high signal-to-noise ratio. Numerical results are presented to compare the theoretical analysis and the Monte-Carlo simulation results
