Abstract
Techniques are provided for steering vector generation. A methodology implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes converting time domain data received from an antenna array to channelized frequency domain data. The method also includes receiving a request from a signal detection system, the request including a timestamp and duration of a detected signal of interest (SOI) and an indication that the SOI is pulsed or continuous. The method further includes generating, for a pulsed SOI, steering vectors to steer the antenna array to the pulsed SOI based on a segment of the time domain data stored in a first memory and identified by the time stamp and duration; and generating, for a continuous SOI, steering vectors to steer the antenna array to the continuous SOI based on a segment of the channelized frequency domain data stored in a second memory and identified by the time stamp and duration.
