Abstract :
It is shown that the radiation pattern of a circular aperture antenna can be closely approximated by a concentric ring array with sampled amplitudes. The maximum allowable inter-ring spacing is found to be about four-tenths of a wavelength if high side-lobes are to be avoided. Taylor patterns are used as examples.
