Abstract:

The objective of many pattern synthesis methods, either based on the adaptive array theory or on template approximation, is often the shape control of pattern rather than the array efficiency. In order to solve the problem, a novel algorithm for pattern synthesis is presented by minimizing the norm of the weight vector under constraints of the mainlode-sidelobe-ratio, mainlobe width, flat mainlobe or interference nulling. Simulation results demostrate the validity of the proposed method.

Key words: antenna array, pattern synthesis, array efficiency, beamforming
