title: The use of nonuniform element spacing in array processing algorithms.
abstract: Most array signal processing algorithms use uniform element spacing to estimate source bearing. This paper demonstrates the benefit of using nonuniform element spacing in Bartlett, linear prediction (LP), and minimum variance (MV) array processing algorithms. By using optimum element spacing results obtained by previous investigators for sidelobe reduction of the Bartlett method, better MV and LP performances, in terms of array output power, are obtained.
