Abstract
Amplitudes and phases of different channels in an electromagnetic signal transmission network, whereof the sources are arranged in a triangular lattice, are determined by tiling the lattice with hexagons having six equal sides, the hexagonal tiles that are formed are distributed on the lattice such that two successive tiles along a direction in the lattice rectangular height equivalent to the triangular lattice are offset by an elementary step along the width direction. A Fourier transform is performed on the resulting tiles; directions are selected on the resulting new lattice corresponding to the transmission directions; an inverse Fourier transform is performed of the directions; and amplitude and phase coefficients to be applied to the transmission network different channels are deduced from the inverse Fourier transform.
