Unconventional Phased Array Architectures and Design Methodologies — A Review
Résumé
The proliferation of wireless services is driving innovative phased array solutions that are able to provide better cost/performance tradeoffs. In this context, the use of irregular array architectures provides a viable solution. This paper reviews and highlights some of the most recent advances in this field, including clustered, thinned, sparse, and time-modulated arrays, and their proposed design methodologies.
