This article proposed a multiple signal classification method based on array signal processing for impact source localization in a plate. For source localization, the direction of arrival of the wave caused by an impact on a plate and the distance between the impact position and sensor should be estimated. The direction of arrival can be estimated accurately using the multiple signal classification method; the distance can be obtained using the time delay of arrival and the group velocity of the Lamb wave in a plate. The time delay of arrival is experimentally estimated using the continuous wavelet transform for the wave. The group velocity is theoretically obtained based on the elastodynamic theory.
