Distributed and collaborative beamforming (DCBF) scheme in wireless sensor networks
(WSNs) is receiving newfound interest in recent times due to the rapid advancements in …

Over-the-air computation (AirComp) is a powerful technique to combine data collected from
an enormous number of nodes with limited bandwidth availability. When unmanned aerial …

To extend the transmission range governed by limited transmit power, collaborative
beamforming (CB) can be employed with a virtual antenna array (VAA) constructed by an …

Statistically thinned arrays are obtained by thinning a reference filled array, according to a
probabilistic law that is dictated by the reference current. The remaining radiators are still …

In this letter, we propose an analog cooperative beamforming (ACB) technique using
random antenna arrays for physical-layer (PHY) secure communications, where the array …

Beamforming algorithms for UAV swarms are investigated. The swarm is modeled as a
morphing volumetric random array and it is assumed that each element is enabled with …

Spherical volumetric arrays with randomly distributed elements are studied using
geometrical probability theory. The array elements are considered as points of an isotropic …

The performance of 2-D random arrays is analyzed using the distance distributions of an
isotropic homogeneous binomial point process. The array factor is expressed as the …

A methodology is proposed in this work to characterize the complex vector near-field of
focused antenna arrays with arbitrary geometry, subject to random errors. Starting with the …

Cooperative beamforming (CB), where spatially distributed nodes synchronize their transmit
phases to maximize the power of their combined signal at a desired receiver, can be used …
