Array processing is signal processing of the outputs of an array of sensors to:

  • Enhance the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) compared to that of a single sensor using conventional or adaptive beamforming.
  • Determine the number of emitting sources, the locations of these sources, their waveforms, and other signal parameters.
  • Track multiple moving sources.
