Abstract :
In a previous paper the authors considered the problem of tracking several targets in terms of the directions of arrival (DOA) of signals using sensor array outputs. An algorithm was developed for data association. The authors consider the problem of estimating the DOAs by a new method, which seems to provide satisfactory estimates. The algorithm developed for data association in the previous paper is used on the new estimates for computing the trajectories of the different targets
