Non-uniform amplitude excitation arrays are nowadays very desirable in the modern wireless communication systems. They have ability to provide required radiation characteristics such as low side lobes and good directivity. The uniform amplitude excitation arrays are good in providing good directivity and narrow beam width. However, these desired radiation features are come at the cost of relatively high side lobes. Thus, these types of arrays are not widely used in the wireless communication systems especially when these arrays are operated in a noisy and crowded environment that contains many interfering signals. Non-uniform amplitude excitations such as Dolph and Taylor are considered in this paper and their performances are investigated under various array parameters. Simulation results show that as the amplitude excitations of the array elements decaying at the edge elements more reduction in the sidelobe patterns can be obtained.
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.
