Abstract-An efficient hybrid method is presented to obtain the current distribution of both non-uniformly linear and planar arrays by sampling the array factor of a desired radiation pattern. The proposed method provides Fourier coefficients and uses the Least Mean Square method (LMS) to solve the system of equations in order to obtain current distribution in associate with the desired radiation pattern. The obtained level of first Peak Side Lobe Level (PSLL) is 3 dB lower than the level of first PSLL using conventional methods such as LMS method or Legendre function method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
