Hybrid Beamforming for Active Sensing Using Sparse Arrays [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 2020
This paper studies hybrid beamforming for active sensing applications, such as millimeter-wave or ultrasound imaging. Hybrid beamforming can substantially lower the cost and power consumption of fully digital sensor arrays by reducing the number of active front ends. Sparse arrays can be used to further reduce hardware costs.

Sparse Convolutional Beamforming for Wireless Ultrasound

ICASSP 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2020
Wireless ultrasound systems can make the imaging process much more efficient, affordable and accessible for users. The standard technique to create B-mode images is to rely on delay and sum (DAS) beamforming, in which the signals at each transducer element are sampled and processed by introducing appropriate delays. However, the sampling rates required

Window Beamformer for Sparse Concentric Circular Array

ICASSP 2021 - 2021 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2021
This work proposes a practical fixed beamformer for a sparse concentric circular array (CCA) of microphones. Firstly, a method is proposed which enables the reduction of the number of microphones in a CCA based on the optimal placement of the microphones to maximize the directivity-factor (DF).

Beamformer design with sparse filters

2015 IEEE International Conference on Digital Signal Processing (DSP), 2015
In designing broadband beamformers, when the number of microphone increases and the filters are long, the complexity can grow significantly. It is advantageous if many of the filter coefficients are zeroes so that the implementation can be executed with less computation. In this paper, the sparse design of beamformers is studied.
