Some promising technologies such as Internet-of-things (IoT) communicate by means of backscattered power to minimize consumption. In backscatter-based communications, the fading a signal envelope is, in general, worse than that standard one-way communications.

The round-trip nature of backscatter communications subjects the radio link to unusually severe small-scale fading. Over fading channels, received signal envelope in backscatter-based systems such as radio-frequency identification (RFID) fades worse than a standard one-way communication.

In two-dimensional direction of arrival (2D-DOA) estimation, planar arrays can estimate the elevation and azimuth angles simultaneously. However, many array topologies such as billboard, L-shaped, T-shaped, 2D nested suffer from mutual coupling that results small separation between physical sensors (antennas), which limits estimation capability sensor array. an attempt to reduce sensors, this article proposes sparse billboard T-shaped in number closely separated is significantly reduced....
