Wideband Capon Beamforming for a Planar Phased Radar Array with Antenna Switching
Moon-Sik Lee
Abstract :	A wideband beamforming algorithm for estimating the azimuth angle, elevation angle, velocity, and range using a planar phased radar array with antenna switching is proposed. It uses the time-variant steering vector model. Simulation results illustrating the performance of the proposed beamformer are presented.
Key word :	Planar array, phased radar array, antenna switching, wideband beamforming, Capon beamforming.
