Abstract :
It is well known that optimal arrays based on the minimum mean-square error criteria also maximizes the output signal-to-noise ratio for very narrow-band signals. In this correspondence we will present an analysis which compares this performance of an optimal array to the signal-to-noise performance of a conventional array.
