Linear Connected Arrays

چکیده

The concept of connected (or coupled) dipoles in a linear array, which improves wideband performance, is examined. A long wire with multiple feeds is the model, using rigorous moment method analysis. Edge waves of current appear not to be attenuated; around half-wave dipole length the current peaks are one wavelength apart, with deep nulls. For dipole lengths around quarter-wave the current peaks and dips are modest. This trend continues to shorter dipoles; for lengths of 0 1 wavelength or less, the current is nearly constant along the array. This approximates the current sheet of Wheeler; the impedance mismatch is much less severe than for an array of unconnected dipoles of the same dimensions.

Optimization of Array Factor in Linear Arrays Using Modified Genetic Algorithm

The array factor (sidelobe level, SLL) of a linear array is optimized using modified continuous genetic algorithms in this work. The amplitudes and phases of the currents as well as the separation of the antennas are all taken as variables to be controlled. The results of the design using modified GA versions are compared with other methods. Two design problems were studied using several contin...

Development a New Technique Based on Least Square Method to Synthesize the Pattern of Equally Space Linear Arrays

Using the sampled data of a desired pattern is a common technique in pattern synthesizing of array factor (AF) of antenna arrays. Based on the obtained data matrix, Least Square Method (LSM) is used to calculate the exciting coefficient of array elements. The most important parameter, which involves the accuracy and complexity of calculation, is the sampling rate of the desired pattern. Classic...

Synthesis of Antenna Arrays of Maximum Directivity for a Specified Sidelobe Level

Linear and planar antenna arrays are synthesized to have maximum directivity for a specified sidelobe level. The directivity is maximized subject to a given SLL. The beamwidth and the zeros of array factor are studied as well as the directivity. Maximum directivity-arrays are compared through some examples with super-directive, uniform, Dolph-Chebyshev and Riblet-Chebychev arrays to find a comp...
