Thanks to the autocorrelation properties of ADSs, such a technique allows the design of fully interleaved arrays with predictable performances. Analytical and numerical results are provided in order to point out the computational efficiency and the effectiveness of the approach th in the linear and in the planar case. date: 2011-01 date_type: published institution: University of Trento department: informaticat refereed: FALSE referencetext: 1 R.
