phased arrays.
 Contents:

 An introduction to the principles and practices of arrays

 code status and issues
 Applications from various industries using large systems
 Portable PA applications.
 These applications are (edited) Power Point
presentations from various conferences.

 What will attendees learn?

 The general concepts of how phased arrays work

 How phased arrays have been used in many other
applications
 What type of system is best for your application

 Where we stand with codes

 You will NOT be a certified phased array operator

after this seminar! We have real training courses
for that.
