Abstract :
A special form of complex matrix called a "phase-difference matrix" that arises in the optimization of antenna arrays is discussed. It is shown that the inverse of such a matrix can be obtained by inverting an associated real matrix without having to perform any arithmetic operations with complex numbers.
