Two 2-D DOA Estimation Methods with Full and Partial Generalized Virtual Aperture Extension Technology by Riheng Wu, Yangyang Dong, Zhenhai Zhang, Le Xu

“…The subspace-like method develops the rotational invariance property of the full virtual received data model by introducing two azimuths and two elevation selection matrices. As a consequence, the problem to estimate azimuths represented by an eigenvalue matrix can be first solved by applying the eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) to a known nonsingular matrix, and the angles pairing is automatically implemented via the associate eigenvector. …”
