Abstract

In this paper, we propose a fast method for array response adjustment with phase-only constraint. This method can precisely and rapidly adjust the array response of a given point by only varying the entry phases of a pre-assigned weight vector. We show that phase-only array response adjustment can be formulated as a polygon construction problem, which can be solved by edge rotation in complex plain. Unlike the existing approaches, the proposed algorithm provides an analytical solution and guarantees a precise phase-only adjustment without pattern distortion. Moreover, the proposed method is suitable for an arbitrarily given weight vector and has a low computational complexity. Representative examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
