Researchers have developed a hybrid learning framework that combines physics-informed constraints with deep neural networks to enhance the accuracy of angle-of-arrival (AoA) estimation in wireless navigation systems. This approach aims to improve robustness against non-line-of-sight (NLoS) propagation, which typically degrades the performance of data-driven methods. By enforcing consistency between predicted angles and inter-antenna phase differences under a plane-wave model, and using a latent-space classifier to differentiate line-of-sight (LoS) from NLoS samples, the method promotes physically consistent representations. Evaluations on real-world datasets indicate a reduction in AoA estimation error by up to 6° in low-exemplar settings compared to existing domain-incremental learning baselines. AI
