چکیده
The paper presents a method of designing ultrawide band (UWB) pulse array beamformer in the case of nearfield. Firstly the principle of space-time processing of UWB pulse array is discussed. The radical beampattern transform based on spherical coordinates is employed to solve the nearfield beamforming of UWB pulse array. The frequency invariant technology is considered for the frequency dependent beampattern of UWB pulse array. We use a multirate bank scheme of to implement the FI beamformer of UWB pulse array. By using multirate filters in each element channel, it can make the response of the UWB array to avoid distortion in the whole band. The simulation resultes are given to prove the efficiency and feasibility of this method. Keywords—UWB pulse array, frequency invariant, multirate bank, nearfield beamformer, radical transform

An adaptive beamforming method for ultrawide-band (UWB) array in the case of nearfield is proposed based on the radical basis function neural network (RBFNN) in this paper. The desired outputs corresponding with measured inputs for the nearfield impulse source are reflected into a set of training samples. Genetic algorithm and recursive least square algorithm are employed to determine the struc...

متن کاملSpatial - Temporal Subband Beamforming for Near Field Adaptive Array Processing
This thesis investigates broadband adaptive beamforming for signal targets located in the near field of an array. The primary application of this research is hands-free sound pickup and speech enhancement for wideband telephony. The technical challenges are three-fold. Broadband beamformers are difficult to design due to large frequency dependent beampattern variations and reduced performances ...
متن کاملNearfield broadband adaptive beamforming
A nearfield broadband adaptive beamforming approach based on the modal expansion of the solution to the spherical wave equation is formulated. It provides an efficient parameterization for the nearfield beamforming problem with a single parameter to focus the beamformer to a desired operating radius and a set of modal coefficients to control the angular response. As a consequence, the adaptive ...
