A robust approach to the synthesis of Dolph-Chebyshev beampatterns for uniform circular arrays
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Davies transformation is a method to transform the steering vector of a uniform circular array to another vector with Vandermonde form. However, this transformation can be highly sensitive to perturbations of the underlying ideal array model. In this paper, we describe a method for deriving a more robust transformation using optimisation techniques. The effectiveness of the method is illustrated through a numerical example.

Chebyshev-like Low Sidelobe Beampatterns with Adjustable Beamwidth and Steering-Invariance
A modification of the classic Dolph-Chebyshev low sidelobe array pattern design is introduced, which allows the adjustment of the mainlobe’s width relatively freely and independently from the sidelobe level. In order to illustrate the advantages of the tool provided by the new design method, its application to Uniform Linear Arrays (ULA’s) and Uniform Circular Arrays (UCA’s) is discussed. It is...
متن کاملDolph-Chebyshev approach to the synthesis of beam patterns for uniform circular arrays
Uniform circular arrays (UCAs) are naturally suited to provide 360 degrees of coverage in the azimuthal plane. In this paper, we describe a new approach for synthesizing array patterns with guaranteed maximum sidelobe levels for any look direction. The advantage of this approach is that it is computationally efficient which makes it eminently suitable for real-time beamforming and beamsteering ...
متن کاملSynthesis of Antenna Arrays of Maximum Directivity for a Specified Sidelobe Level
Linear and planar antenna arrays are synthesized to have maximum directivity for a specified sidelobe level. The directivity is maximized subject to a given SLL. The beamwidth and the zeros of array factor are studied as well as the directivity. Maximum directivity-arrays are compared through some examples with super-directive, uniform, Dolph-Chebyshev and Riblet-Chebychev arrays to find a comp...
متن کاملMulti-Objective Evolutionary Optimization of Aperiodic Symmetrical Linear Arrays
In this paper, a multi-objective approach is applied to the design of aperiodic linear arrays of antennas. The adopted procedure is based on a standard Matlab implementation of the Controlled Elitist Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II. Broadside symmetrical arrays of isotropic radiators are considered with both uniform and non-uniform excitations. The work focuses on whether, and in whi...
متن کاملDesign of robust differential microphone arrays with orthogonal polynomials.
Differential microphone arrays have the potential to be widely deployed in hands-free communication systems thanks to their frequency-invariant beampatterns, high directivity factors, and small apertures. Traditionally, they are designed and implemented in a multistage way with uniform linear geometries. This paper presents an approach to the design of differential microphone arrays with orthog...
