Abstract :
The radiation characteristics of a planar array of concentric rings are examined. By employing optimization techniques, control of the beamwidth and sidelobe level is accomplished. Treating the energy in the sidelobes as a criterion for optimization, side-lobes of equal amplitude are obtained.
