Abstract :
This paper presents a fast array optimization technique of two-dimensional antenna array for adaptive beamforming. Using a potential function, the optimization technique was applied to a case where the number of antennas = 12. This technique generated a non-triangular symmetric alignment that has a maximum sidelobe response of less than half that of triangular
