With the advent of high-speed digital electronics, it has become feasible to use digital computers and special purpose digital processors to perform the computational tasks associated with signal reception using an antenna or directional array. The purpose of this paper is mainly tutorial, to describe mathematically and intuitively the fundamental relationships necessary to understand digital array processing. It is hoped that those readers with a background in antenna theory or array processing will see some of the advantages digital processing can offer, while those with a background in digital signal processing recognize the array processing area as a potential application for multi-dimensional signal processing theory.
