Re: Applying complex weight to real data for beamforming!

As a generally rule, the phase difference between receivers in an array of sensors is small compared to the phase difference caused by their difference in location relative to the incoming wavefront. Your general choices are using time delays if you stay in the time domain or complex weights ...
