A single source location method based on a independent doublet array is proposed. It is considered that the source is located at the far‐field of each doublet and the near‐field of the array. The presented method realises direction of arrival estimation by an ESPRIT‐like technique, and the range of the source by array geometry successively. It provides a simple and search‐free estimation method for single near‐field source location. Simulation results are presented that verify the effectiveness of the method.
