However, returning to the original link, and the design behind it, it
is called beam forming as practiced through controlled delays.


I'm curious about the technology to sense the incoming angle.



Hi Mike,

I've spent all day aboard the USS Bunker Hill and had a tour of their
phased array RADAR systems. They use roughly 4000 separate elements
with computer controlled delays to steer the beam anywhere they want
(within a quadrant as there are four panels). The 'tronics consume 3
decks of rack equipment.


Just WOW! What a fun toy.

Chris
