A new approach for thinning antenna array is presented and application examples are given. From examples, it is inferred that using Finite Difference Method the contribution of the removed array elements can be recovered. This method gives better results for small N and small inter-element spacing.

A Novel Input Impedance Computation Method for Coaxial Probe Fed Microstrip Antennas by Utilizing Characteristic Modes
Cetin, Metehan; Alatan, Lale (2017-07-14)
A method to efficiently compute the input impedance of the coaxial probe fed microstrip antennas by using characteristic modes is proposed in this paper. The efficiency is achieved by defining a discontinuous source current at the feed location that models the current injected by the probe. The input impedance is simply expressed in terms of modal excitation coefficients and eigenvalues of each mode.
An optimum reference detector design for uncooled microbolometer FPAs
Tepegoz, Murat; Civitci, Fehmi; Akın, Tayfun (2008-03-20)
This paper introduces an optimum reference detector design for uncooled resistive microbolometer focal plane arrays (FPAs). Reference detectors are mainly used for canceling the bias heating and for decreasing the ambient temperature dependence of the system. The proposed method in this paper determines an optimum thermal conductance value for the reference detector such that it is almost infrared blind, but still has the same bias heating characteristics as the active microbolometer detector. Infrared blin...
An iterative adaptive multi-modal stereo-vision method using mutual information
Yaman, Mustafa; Kalkan, Sinan (2015-01-01)
We propose a method for computing disparity maps from a multi-modal stereo-vision system composed of an infrared-visible camera pair. The method uses mutual information (MI) as the basic similarity measure where a segment-based adaptive windowing mechanism is proposed along with a novel MI computation surface with joint prior probabilities incorporated. The computed cost confidences are aggregated using a novel adaptive cost aggregation method, and the resultant minimum cost disparities in segments are plan...
A new approach to unified performance analysis of randomly-spread CDMA systems over multipath fading channels via crosscorrelation matrix non-asymptotic average eigenvalue distributions
Ertug, O; Baykal, Buyurman; Sayrac, B (2003-09-10)
A new unified method for closed-form theoretical performance analysis of randomly-spread CDMA systems over multipath fading channels with multiuser receivers is presented. The basis of the analysis is the representation of the random signal-to-interference ratios (SIR) at finite system parameters in terms of the eigenvalues of the crosscorrelation matrices for which the non-asymptotic average distributions are found or known. The methodology presented complements the asymptotic limiting theory used in simil...
A new electromagnetic target classification method with MUSIC algorithm
Secmen, Mustafa; Sayan, Gönül (2006-01-01)
This paper introduces a novel method for aspect invariant electromagnetic target recognition based on the use of multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm to extract late-time resonant target features from the ultra-wideband scattered data. This method is mainly based on the usage of MUSIC spectra obtained from electromagnetic scattered data as the target features. This approach achieves very high accuracy rates even at very low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values although it needs scattered data for ...
