MUSIC
A high-resolution direction-of-arrival estimation algorithm that separates a signal subspace from noise to resolve closely spaced emitters beyond conventional beamwidth limits. It is a standard textbook method in array signal processing. MUSIC is a high-resolution algorithm that resolves closely spaced emitters beyond what conventional direction-finding can; for an operator it means separating two nearby transmitters that would otherwise merge.
