Thinning and Weighting of Planar/Conformal Arrays Considering Mutual Coupling Effects

Based on an improved active element pattern (AEP) technique, a novel effective method for sidelobe suppression considering mutual coupling (MC) in planar and conformal sparse arrays is proposed in this paper. A thinning and weighting process that includes the thinning module, optimization module, an...
