Centre for Electronics

Online Teams Link Summary In many applications, the sensor array's geometrical layout is assumed to be fixed and given in advance. However, it is possible to change the geometrical layout of the array including adjacent sensor spacing and these additional spatial degrees of freedom (DOFs) can be exploited to improve the performance in terms of either beamforming or direction finding or both. With the development of compressive sensing (CS) or the sparsity maximization framework, a new CS...
