What is the array equivalent of a window function in signal processing?

  • A.The number of elements in the array
  • B.The amplitude taper across the elements
  • C.The progressive phase shift between elements
  • D.The element spacing in wavelengths

Answer: B

Both problems are the same mathematics: the pattern is the Fourier transform of the aperture distribution, so an amplitude taper plays exactly the role of a window in suppressing spectral leakage. Hamming, Taylor and Chebyshev appear in both fields for that reason. Phase shift corresponds to a frequency shift, spacing to the sampling interval and element count to the record length, so the whole analogy carries across term by term.
