Beam Focusing by Scattering from an Array of Scatterers on a Drone

Issue Date

1-2021

Abstract

Beamforming by scattering from an array of scatterers carried by a drone is explored. By positioning the vertical heights of the scatterers on the drone, beam focusing can be achieved in a desired direction. Various horizontal layouts of the scatterers on the drone can be used, with a 'double-cross' layout used here for the case of 9 scatterers. The formation of a null in the pattern in a desired direction is also possible using optimization of the scatterer positions.
