Abstract :
A new method is described for the synthesis of antenna patterns of circular are arrays. The method is based on the application of the simulated annealing technique to achieve the excitations of elements for a desired radiation pattern. Design specifications include sidelobe level, beamwidth, control of nulls, and other parameters such as the dynamic range of excitations
