Chirp-Based Aliasing Analysis of Arrays in the Spherical Wavefront Regime

In antenna arrays, wave propagation modeling based on Euclidean principles is typically represented by steering vectors or signals. This paper provides a new, chirp-based, interpretation of steering vectors in the Spherical Wavefront Regime (SWR), establishing a relationship between the spatial spectrum of the received (resp. transmitted) signal and the geometry of the array and the source (resp. target). Leveraging the well-known sampling theorem, we analyze aliasing effects arising from spatial sampling with a finite number of antennas and understand how these effects degrade the Ambiguity Function (AF). Our framework provides geometric insight into these degradations, offering a deeper understanding of the non-space-invariant aliasing mechanisms in the SWR. The proposed approach is formulated for general antenna arrays and then instantiated to Circular Array and to Uniform Linear Array structures operating in Near Field conditions.
