The Design of Antenna Arrays for Maximum Signal to Noise Ratio

Abstract

Research is concerned with the investigation of the noise level of various antenna arrays. It is intended to show that the performance of an array can be optimized by control of several parameters such as element diameter, number of elements, spacing between elements, and feedlineATTENUATION. It is believed that the array type antenna offers certain advantages over the single aperture antenna when such factors as high power transmission, correction for atmospheric effects are needed, when extremely high gain is needed or where bandwidth control is desired.
