Abstract :
The author presents a method for forming nulls in prescribed directions in the radiation pattern P0 of an antenna array by phase-only control. The method modifies the excitation phases of P0 , allowing the construction of a sequence of patterns {Pn } having increasingly deeper nulls. A solution is provided by terminating the sequence at a suitable step
