Modeling Phased Array Systems with MATLAB

Overview

This webinar will teach you how to design and model phased arrays with MATLAB and Simulink.  We will demonstrate how to reduce the complexity and maintain performance in a phased array system by using subarrays and effective array design, how to account for realistic effects like mutual coupling between elements and impairments due to manufacturing or operational defects, and how to mitigate interference in a spatially crowded RF environment.  With a few examples, you will see how MATLAB and Simulink can enable effective analysis of phased array systems at every stage, from design, to deployment, to operational sustainment.

Highlights

Highlights of the webinar include:

• Designing an array in a low-code interactive environment
• Calibrate an array to mitigate impairments due to manufacturing tolerances
• Using optimization techniques to perform pattern synthesis and improve signal to interference and noise ratio
