Abstract :
The formulation of multibeaming in time modulated arrays (TMAs) is generalized for nonsinusoidal basis functions. This can overcome ambiguities between angle and frequency present in TMA harmonic beams and detrimental to radars and spectrometers. This concept is used to analyze the Doppler VHF Omni Range (DVOR), and it is shown that the DVOR is a TMA using a single-tone frequency-modulated basis function.
