Optimisation of Wide-Band Beam Patterns by Means of a Joined Synthesis of Weighting Coefficients and Pulse Envelope

Wide-band signals used in active beamforming offer some advantages compared to narrow-band ones: essentially, they improve range resolution, increasing in this way the image’s definition.
