We propose a novel beamforming algorithm for a three-element system that suppresses an interference signal while still being able to measure a target's interferometer phases. Unlike most direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithms, our algorithm does not use a grid search. Instead the estimates result from a closed-form solution, a great advantage in time-sensitive applications. The derivation of the algorithm is presented, and its statistical performance is examined with simulations. Additionally, our numerical results demonstrate that our algorithm is capable of achieving more reliable DOA estimates than those found with the well-known multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm. Finally, a radar signal processing example is presented.
