Each element of the array is uniformly weighted and the nulling feature is yielded by controlling a set of radio-frequency switches that connect or disconnect the elements from the beam forming network. Representative result concerned with different interfering scenarios with multiple undesired signals are reported to assess the effectiveness of the approach. date: 2016 publisher: University of Trento referencetext: [1] P.
