Properties of Density Tapered Arrays

Abstract

The properties of density arrays designed with deterministic and statistically designed arrays are then described as a function of main beam scan, average sidelobe level, model amplitude distribution, thinning, and array and aperture size. Firstly it was found that without additional signal processing large apertures were needed to produce low sidelobe levels. For example, the minimum circular aperture needed.
