ORTHOGONAL NULLING
Fig. 1 The 1-dimensional sum and delta beam pattern factors (left)
The set of monopulse beams including the delta-delta beam and the corresponding monopulse ratio (right)
is considered for rectangular aperture. Tapering can be
applied such as Taylor coefficients for the sum beam and nulls at the jammer elevation angle. The adapted monopulse
Bayliss coefficients for the delta beam. The illumination ratio is given as the ratio of the adapted azimuth delta beam
functions along the columns and rows are independent over the adapted azimuth sum beam. The patterns can be
leading to the product antenna patterns. These patterns are expressed as product patterns in azimuth and elevation. The
separable in the directional cosines u and v. The antenna elevation patterns form identical nulls are canceled out in
patterns for the four beams can be expressed as the the ratio thus leaving the azimuth monopulse ratio un-
distorted. A similar procedure applies to the adapted
following: elevation monopulse processing. This mainlobe cancellation
capability maintains target detection over the entire beam
except at the jammer location and the monopulse angle
estimation accuracy except at the null strips. The following
expressions illustrate the monopulse-preserving processing
just described:
