Design of Planar Microstrip Antenna Arrays and Mutual Coupling Effects
In patch antennas, characteristics such as high gain, beam scanning, or steering capability are possible only when discrete patch elements are combined to form arrays. The elements of an array may be spatially distributed to form a linear, planar, or volume array. Planar arrays have elements distributed on a plane. Planar array configurations are extensively used in both communication and radar...
متن کاملDirection finding and mutual coupling estimation for uniform rectangular arrays
A novel two-dimensional (2-D) direct-of-arrival (DOA) and mutual coupling coefficients estimation algorithm for uniform rectangular arrays (URAs) is proposed. A general mutual coupling model is first built based on banded symmetric Toeplitz matrices, and then it is proved that the steering vector of a URA in the presence of mutual coupling has a similar form to that of a uniform linear array (U...
متن کاملMutual Coupling in Longitudinal Arrays of Compound Slots
The arrays of compound-slots (inclined and displaced from waveguide centre) are not so common in the literature and the existing systematic method of design does not take into account the presence of surrounding elements. For this kind of slots, the reasons why the Elliott’s procedure cannot be applied are physically explained. A new method based on circuit theory and scattering matrices connec...
متن کاملOn the Impact of Mutual Coupling Effects on the Psl Performances of Ads Thinned Arrays
Abstract—In this paper, the performances of thinned arrays based on Almost Difference Sets are analyzed in the presence of mutual coupling effects. The geometry under test is composed by thin dipole elements and the arising mutual interactions are modeled by means of the induced EMF method. To assess the robustness of the ADS -based thinning technique also in such a non-ideal case, an extensive...
متن کاملPhase-locked laser arrays through global antenna mutual coupling
Phase locking of an array of lasers is a highly effective method in beam shaping because it increases the output power and reduces the lasing threshold. Here, we show a conceptually novel phase-locking mechanism based on ‘antenna mutual coupling’ in which laser elements interact through far-field radiations with definite phase relations. This allows a longrange global coupling among the array e...
