Pattern synthesis method for arbitrary arrays based on LCMV criterion - Electronics Letters

چکیده
A pattern synthesis method for arbitrary arrays based on the linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) criterion is presented. Given mainlobe regions and an arbitrary sidelobe envelope, this algorithm searches the pattern with the lowest sidelobe levels. Its iteration coefficient is robust to synthesis conditions, and patterns with a flat top mainlobe can be obtained using phase-independent derivative constraints.

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...
متن کاملPhase-Only Synthesis of Antenna Arrays Using Nonuniform Phased Sampling Method
Nonuniform Phased Sampling method is proposed to phase-only synthesize the power pattern of both linear and planar antenna arrays. This method modifies the conventional sampling method which is used for amplitude-phase synthesis. This method is based on assigning suitable phases to the sampling points of radiation pattern in order to reach desired amplitude of currents. Some examples are given ...
متن کاملNonlinear least-square solution to flat-top pattern synthesis using arbitrary linear array
This paper presents a new approach for synthesizing flat-top patterns, based on the least-square error criterion. The cost function is formulated according to the amplitude approximation error without phase constraint. The optimal array weight is obtained by using the Levenberg–Marquardt nonlinear optimization algorithm. Simulations are performed to compare the proposed approach with the Woodwa...

This paper presents a new pattern synthesis algorithm for arbitrary arrays based on adaptive array theory. With this algorithm, the designer can efficiently control both mainlobe shaping and sidelobe levels. The element weights optimize a weighted L2 norm between desired and achieved patterns. The values of the weighting function in the L2 norm, interpreted as imaginary jammers as in Olen and C...
متن کاملPhase Only Synthesis of Antenna Patterns Using Iterative Restoration Methods
In this work, the method of iterative Fourier transform phase reconstruction, conventionally used in holography and optical image reconstruction, is applied to phase only synthesis of antenna patterns. The method is applied to two types of pattern synthesis problems: "main lobe beam shaping" and "side-lobe-level reduction". The proposed method is most useful in the efficient employment of attai...
