Starting from a sparse representation of the problem solution, the DoA estimation problem has been addressed by means of a methodology based on the BCS paradigm. A customized implementation exploiting the measurements collected at multiple time instants (multiple-snapshots) providing robust and very accurate estimates when correlating the information from multiple snapshots has been validated. date: 2016 publisher: University of Trento referencetext: [1] M.
