4. Conclusions

This chapter focuses on the APS problem with sparse antenna array, which has practical applications, especially for massive antenna array. By using array

orientation diversity and solving reweightedl1-norm minimization convex optimization problem, the proposed APS algorithm shows the superiority in reducing array elements, suppressing the sidelobe, and reducing the energy consumption to some extent, and the robustness of the proposed design tool in real-life application will also be considered in our further work.
