ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for the direction of arrival (DOA) tracking of at least one source, along a single azimuth axis or along both azimuth and elevation axes. The method includes the steps of selecting all the high peaks from a DOA function as potential track points, converting the potential track points into a plurality of tracks and selecting a true track from the plurality of tracks.
