| Summary: | One of the major challenges in developing various practical communication systems is reducing device complexity and development costs. In this study, a linear sparse array antenna design problem is addressed and a new approach for density taper element spacing by using the spacing coefficient algorithm is proposed. This method is a mathematical approach to obtain the distance between array elements by developing a spacing coefficient dn for each element to achieve radiation performances with a minimum number of antenna elements. The simulation and measurement results show a significant improvement in array performance compared to other sparse array design methods, such as the CDS sparse array method in our previous work. |
