Abstract
Following the noise wave theory, beam forming networks based on Coherently Radiating Periodic Structures (CORPS-BFN) are analysed and proven to be capable of enhancing the Signal to Noise Ratio of the system by analogically multiplexing the signal and noise contributions present at every input port. The geometry of the network determines the maximum enhancement achievable, which is demonstrated t ...
