Point Source Radiation Pattern Synthesis by Iterative Techniques.

Abstract

The steepest descent method has been applied to the radiation pattern synthesis of a planar array. The error function is defined as the difference between the specified pattern and the radiation pattern over the entire synthesis range. The steepest descent technique is used to find the new array parameters such that the error function is a minimum. Synthesis examples and a computer program implementation of the method are presented in the report. (Author)
