Abstract :
A novel method for the synthesis of arrays in the presence of conducting scatterers is presented. This method includes and takes advantage of the radiation of the scatterer by using the generalised multipole technique. Thus, the optimum solution can be obtained for an array in the presence of a conducting obstacle
