Abstract: The objective of this patent is to develop new signal processing algorithms for a wide-band circular electronically scanned array (CESA) or a wideband linear electronically scanned array (LESA) for use in surveillance and communications applications, where a sequence of pulses are transmitted and their returns are collected by the array for further processing. Instead of partitioning the entire wideband frequency into various subbands and then processing them separately using narrowband schemes, a frequency focusing method is proposed here to compensate and focus the wideband spatio-temporal data into a single narrow frequency band. This is made possible by operating with a pre-computed frequency focusing matrix that transforms the data from various frequency slots that are spread across the entire wideband region into a common narrowband frequency for the array outputs.
