This article presents a Kronecker-product (KP) beamforming approach incorporating sparse concentric circular arrays (SCCAs). The locations of the microphones on the SCCA are optimized concerning the broadband array directivity over a wide range of direction-of-arrival (DOA) deviations of a desired signal. A maximum directivity factor (MDF) sub-beamformer is derived accordingly with th... https://www.spidertattooz.com/USC-Trojans-9FIFTY-Snapback-Hat/
