Abstract :
A technique is presented which combines the subarraying qualities of constrained dual transform beamforming sections and partial overlapping networks to produce arrays of contiguous subarrays. This approach is shown to facilitate wideband scanning or limited field of view coverage with a minimum number of controls and low sidelobes
