An antenna is considered as a space‐time sampling system whose function is to abstract from the incoming signals the information required for a particular system objective. Examples of such array designs are described for communication and radar objectives. A self‐phased array is described that optimizes the reception of communications signals. An optimum radar array processing is shown to provide a significant resolution improvement over the conventional array.
