Biomimetic target localisation using an EMFi based array

Bats are known to use spectral cues to localise targets. We propose a similar localisation scheme making use of a sensor array built using EMFi material and a structured backplate. We present an adaptation of 'delay and sum' beamforming that when combined with a broadband chirp results in...

Zusammenfassung:Bats are known to use spectral cues to localise targets. We propose a similar localisation scheme making use of a sensor array built using EMFi material and a structured backplate. We present an adaptation of 'delay and sum' beamforming that when combined with a broadband chirp results in accurate localisation (±2°) in a broad field of view [-70°,70°].
