A new class of broadband time domain element space antenna array processors

This paper describes a new approach to the design of broadband element space antenna array processor which can handle a variety of steering situations. The approach is applicable to array processor without pre-steering, with coarse pre-steering and exact pre-steering. Furthermore, the approach presented enables mismatch between signal model and actual signal scenario to be incorporated in the problem formulation. Analytical as well as simulation results on the new class of antenna array processors are presented.
