Abstract
This paper investigates the performance of beam pattern forming employing the Minimax algorithm. The examples used in this paper demonstrate how phase-only adjustment is performed on both circular and elliptical beams. Compared with complex weights adjustment, problem of phase only adjustment is addressed and performance analysis is provided. A 244 element non-uniformly spaced array antenna is used in this simulation study.
