Array Beamforming Response Studies.
Abstract
Computer graphics have been used to display the results of array beamformer computations in a form aiding insight into beamforming characteristics. In particular, the effect of a parameter such as frequency, wavefront curvature, beam angle, or shading on array response can be easily seen. The examples are chosen to illustrate those characteristics as well as to aid insight into a number of important array properties. The associated theory is briefly summarized with each example, and the emphasis on important array properties makes the report useful as a tutorial review. (Author)
