Special Session 13  会议特别专题 13

Theory and Applications of Frequency Diverse Array

Description: Frequency Diverse Array (FDA), as an emerging array technology, has recently garnered extensive attention in the research community. By introducing frequency increments between adjacent transmit array elements, FDA enables forming space-time coupled transmit beampatterns, bringing great application potentials to fields such as radar, communications, and electronic countermeasures. This special session aims to gather innovative research achievements from scholars worldwide in the field of FDA, exploring key challenges in its theory and applications, and ultimately promote both theoretical advancements and engineering applications of FDA technology.
