Abstract:In this paper, we derive analytical expressions to compute the covariance matrix of the signals impinging on a reconfigurable antenna array. We consider a receiver equipped with a linear antenna array where each antenna element can be independently configured to create a directive radiation pattern toward a selected direction. In our derivation, we assume a multimodal truncated Laplacian distribution to model the power angular spectrum (PAS) of the signals arriving at the array. Using the derived expressions, … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
