Abstract :
A novel radar array providing resolution superior to any other antenna configuration with the same physical aperture is described. Application of the new array to a localized imaging system suitable for real-time operation is simulated, and its resolution and depth of field properties ate compared with those of a crossed array and the conventional filled array antenna. Substantial savings in weight, cost, and complexity are offered by the proposed configuration.
