MODE-type algorithm for estimating damped, undamped, or explosive modes (Q1363395)

A variant of the method of direction estimation is proposed. An estimator for the exponential modes is developed for an adaptive sensor array processing model. The additional advantage is achieved based on weights adaptation in case of colored noise accommodation, without using a priori information. Application for estimating damped, undamped or explosive sinusoidal signals is considered and numerical examples are included.
