This paper achieves the circular flat-top beam pattern synthesis of a uniform amplitude sparse planar dipole array by joint optimization of element rotations, positions and phases. Moreover, the ...

A novel hybrid approach to suppress the maximum sidelobe level (SLL) of large scale concentric circular antenna array (CCAA) is proposed. The approach includes an improved discrete cuckoo search ...

Pattern synthesis is an important topic in array processing because array weights help shape the beam pattern of a sensor array to match a desired pattern. This type of beam-pattern synthesis is used ...

In Part 1, we covered beam direction and working with a uniformly spaced linear array of antennas. Part 2 focused on antenna gain, directivity, and aperture, as well as array factors. In Part 3, we’ll ...
