  • Abstract
    This paper deals with the analysis of linear antenna arrays whose excitations are affected by uncorrelated and random phase errors varying within a bounded range of values caused by manufactory tolerances. An innovative mathematical technique based on Interval Analysis is applied to efficiently predict the tolerance on the radiated power pattern as well as evaluate the effects on the corresponding pattern features.
