Title: Frequency Diverse Array Time Variance and Its Potential Applications 

Abstract: Frequency diverse array (FDA) has received much attention and increasing publications due to its promising advantages while compared with classic phased-array. However, time variance is unpractically ignored in many publications. This presentation will discuss FDA time variance and its potentials in radar, communication, and electronic warfare applications. The corresponding application comparisons to phased-array will be compared. Criterions to define the efficiency or usefulness of FDA applications from cost-effective and performance point of view also will be discussed. Finally, the technical challenges and possible future investigations will be given.
