Abstract :
The IsoFiltertrade technique is a novel method of isolating the radiation pattern of an individual radiator from among a composite set of radiators that form a complex radiation distribution. This paper demonstrates that the technique is viable and applicable to cases where the individual radiator of interest is near the boundary of the minimum sphere that encloses the entire collection of sources.
