Efficient design of sparse arrays for narrowband and wideband beamforming

Traditionally uniform arrays are used to implement beamformers. However, in order to avoid grating lobes the maximum adjacent sensor separation is half of the operating wavelength. For large aperture sizes this can be problematic due to the cost associated with the number of sensors required. Instea...
