Bandwidth performance of 16-element thinned phased array with tapped delay-line filter

Abstract

The bandwidth performance of a thinned phased adaptive array with and without a delay-line processor are compared. Five- and nine-jammer scenarios are considered for two EHF bands, 0.125 and 2.0 GHz. The null-depth which was used as the measure of performance was computed over the nulling band for three different delay-line configurations. The simulation results give some insight into the way in which delay-line compensation provides improved performance as the interference bandwidth increases.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
