A new array geometry, which is capable of significantly increasing the degrees of freedom of
linear arrays, is proposed. This structure is obtained by systematically nesting two or more …

Large arrays are difficult to thin in order to obtain low sidelobes. Traditional statistical
methods of aperiodic array synthesis fall far short of optimum configurations. Traditional …

Abstract The Cramér–Rao bound (CRB) offers a lower bound on the variances of unbiased
estimates of parameters, eg, directions of arrival (DOA) in array processing. While there exist …

This article is a tutorial on using genetic algorithms to optimize antenna and scattering
patterns. Genetic algorithms are" global" numerical-optimization methods, patterned after the …

Simulated annealing is applied to the synthesis of arrays in order to reduce the peaks of side
lobes by acting on the elements' positions and weight coefficients. In the case considered …

This paper presents a survey of the status of five active THz imaging modalities which we
have developed and investigated during the last few years with the goal to explore their …

A new class of two dimensional arrays with sensors on lattice (s) is proposed, whose
difference co-array can give rise to a virtual two dimensional array with much larger number …

Among various sparse array techniques, co-prime array is found to be more attractive
because of its higher DoF with a smaller number of sensing elements. Generally, a co-prime …

ESTAR represents a new technology being developed for passive microwave remote
sensing of the environment from space. The instrument employs an interferometric …

Recently, direction-of-arrival estimation (DOA) algorithms based on arbitrary even-order (2
q) cumulants of the received data have been proposed, giving rise to new DOA estimation …
