Large Linear Random Symmetric Arrays

Abstract
In this work linear random arrays are studied. It is shown that random symmetric linear arrays can be more easily characterised (with respect to the asymmetric ones) in terms of the first and second order statistics of the array factor magnitude. In particular, the non-stationarity of the array factor can be taken into account while studying the array response. Accordingly, this leads to more accurate predictions as far as the side-lobe level is concerned.
