Project FM/CW Adaptive Measure

Abstract

The report covers technical investigations and evaluation of system performances as well as the statistical design of large aperture, low sidelobe antenna arrays in the high frequency band of the radio frequency spectrum. The details covered include: (a) measurement and analysis of an existing receive array at Dexter, N.Y.; (b) modification of existing computer software to accept data from the array performance monitor; (c) design, development, and implementation of an array performance monitor for an existing array; (d) analysis of the effect of using a finite radius in making flight checks of an array; (e) design study for a large aperture, low sidelobe array analysis and design including the statistical effect of errors in construction, design gain, system noise figure and aperture coefficients for constant beamwidth as a function of frequency.
