Radiation Pattern and Beamwidth Control of Linear and Rectangular Array Antenna System

Abstract

Antenna array is one of the most prominent techniques of achieving electronic steerable bean i.e. rotation and variation of width of beam as required. This paper depicts a complete theoretical analysis of linear array antenna with transformation of the radiation pattern from a broadside to end-fire direction with change of relative phase, radiation intensity over a spherical surface, implementation of Dolph-Tschebyscheff array in reduction of side lobe of liner and rectangular array and baemdwidth control of rectangular array.
