Abstract:   (1392 Views)
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.
