✦ Synopsis

Abstract

In this paper, the directivity and gain of several types of time‐modulated linear antenna arrays are obtained. Three types of array elements are considered: arrays with isotropic elements, parallel short dipoles, and collinear short dipoles. Curves of directivity as functions of inter‐element spacing and sidelobe levels (SLLs) are presented. A comparison between the computed and measured gains of a time‐modulated printed dipole linear array shows reasonable agreement. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A novel monopulse antenna for a tracking radar system is proposed using the time modulated antenna array technique. The time modulation technique applied in the antenna arrays overcomes the usual need for compromise between sum and difference beams and avoids the need for implementation of two separ

This paper discusses the problem of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation for Gaussian sources that have arbitrary correlation: from independent to fully correlated. For independent sources, the antenna array design is governed by two competing considerations: maximum aperture, which inclines toward
