Abstract

Linear and planar antenna arrays are synthesized to have maximum directivity for a specified sidelobe level. The directivity is maximized subject to a given SLL. The beamwidth and the zeros of array factor are studied as well as the directivity. Maximum directivity-arrays are compared through some examples with super-directive, uniform, Dolph-Chebyshev and Riblet-Chebychev arrays to find a complete definition of optimum arrays. Also, the optimum value of n-bar is intuitively found for Taylor arrays.

Abstract

Linear antenna arrays are synthesized to have maximum directivity for a specified beamwidth. The directivity is maximized subject to a given beamwidth such as null to null or half power one. The excitation currents are obtained using a matrix equation obtained from the Lagrange multiplier method. The performance of the proposed method is studied by means of some examples. The synthesized arrays have the pre-specified beamwhidths and their directivity is close to the number of elements.
