Abstract :
This paper improves and extends bounds on the numbers of sensors, redundancies, and holes for sparse linear arrays to sparse planar and volume arrays. As an application, the efficiency of regular planar and volume arrays with redundancies but no holes is deduced. Also, examples of new redundancy and hole square arrays, found by exhaustive computer search, are given
