Abstract :
The problem of field control of scattering of the antenna arrays is very important. Two directions in development of an antenna engineering are considered in this report. In each of them the scattering field control of an antenna arrays allows one essentially to expand functionalities, of radio engineering sets. The first direction is the creation of auxiliary depolarizing reflectors for two-mirror antennas. The second direction is connected to application of antenna arrays for a reduction of a radar cross section of the radar tracking targets. Transformation of a field polarization by an antenna array allows one to achieve both these purposes
