ABSTRACT:
Forming and directive control of the beam in a circular sonar array without ime delay or phase shift networks. Predetermined weighting coefficients are used to scale sensor outputs that are summed in an add-only processor to provide a weighted sum output characteristic of target position relative to the main receiving axis of the array.
