Synthesis of Wide-Angle Scanning Arrays Through Array Power Control

A new methodology for the synthesis of wide-angle scanning arrays is proposed. It is based on the formulation of the array design problem as a multi-objective one where, for each scan angle, both the radiated power density in the scan direction and the total reflected power are accounted for. A set...

description A new methodology for the synthesis of wide-angle scanning arrays is proposed. It is based on the formulation of the array design problem as a multi-objective one where, for each scan angle, both the radiated power density in the scan direction and the total reflected power are accounted for. A set of numerical results from full-wave simulated examples - dealing with different radiators, arrangements, frequencies, and number of elements - is reported to show the features of the proposed approach as well as to assess its potentialities. A widening of the field-of-view percentage of up to 22% with respect to standard scanning methods is demonstrated.
