Abstract: Two beam broadening methods for active electronically scanned array (AESA) antennas with uniform amplitude excitation are proposed and compared: phase tapering optimization (PTO) and a novel ...
Abstract: Conventional beamforming with fixed-position antenna (FPA) arrays has a fundamental trade-off between maximizing the signal power (array gain) over a desired direction and simultaneously ...
Inspiring but not cloying, this is compelling drama precisely because it is as compromised and imperfect as our own struggles to progress. Don’t be put off by the tech stuff; it’s only rocket science.
