UNIT – IV
Antenna Arrays and their design: Various form of array:
broadside, end fire, collinear and parasitic arrays; Arrays of
two isotropic point sources; Principle of pattern
multiplication; Linear arrays with ‘n’ isotropic point sources of
equal amplitude and spacing: broadside and end fire case;
Tapering of arrays: Binomial and Dolph Tchebysceff array.
Antenna Array
That is, if minor lobes appearing in the array need to be eliminated, the
radiating sources must have current amplitudes proportional to the
coefficient of binomial series, i.e. proportional to the coefficient of
binomial series, i.e
Binomial Array
For an array of total length nλ/2, the relative current in the nth element from
the one end is given by
In other words, in uniform array secondary lobes appear, but principle lobes
are narrower than that of the binomial array.
(a) The side lobes are eliminated but the directivity of array reduced.
(b) As the length of array increases, larger current amplitude ratios are
required.
