Abstract

This paper deals with design-oriented analysis based on matrix compression techniques for large array antennas. We will consider arrays with planar radiating elements metalized on dielectric stratification ("printed" arrays of patches, slots, etc.), or made of non-planar conductors in air (with or without backplane), as well as waveguide-based aperture arrays. Reflectarrays, though not explicitly mentioned, are typical applications for both classes.
