چکیده
294 Abstract — In this paper the beamforming and radiation pattern of various linear and planar phased antenna arrays configurations are presented. They are intended for use in indoor location estimation and wireless process monitoring applications based on the determining of direction-of-arrival (DOA) of radio signals by measuring the angle-of-arrival (AOA). Beamforming and the steering of antenna’s lobes are obtained via a linear phase taper applied between antenna array elements, which provides a relatively simple design. Various antenna array configurations are studied using numerical simulations in order to obtain an optimal beamforming necessary for indoor localization and scanning systems.

متن کاملPhase-Only Synthesis of Antenna Arrays Using Nonuniform Phased Sampling Method
Nonuniform Phased Sampling method is proposed to phase-only synthesize the power pattern of both linear and planar antenna arrays. This method modifies the conventional sampling method which is used for amplitude-phase synthesis. This method is based on assigning suitable phases to the sampling points of radiation pattern in order to reach desired amplitude of currents. Some examples are given ...

متن کاملWideband Capon Beamforming for a Planar Phased Radar Array with Antenna Switching Moon - Sik
Recently, there has been great interest in the development of advanced radar systems with phased arrays [1], [2]. In traditional multichannel radar array systems, the number of receivers should be equal to the number of receiving antennas, so the hardware expense and power consumption are very high [3]. A radar array system based on antenna switching is a promising substitute due to its lower c...
