Simple Array Beam-Shaping Using Phase-Only Adjustments.
- Sandia National Lab. (SNL-NM), Albuquerque, NM (United States)
Conventional beam-shaping for array antennas is accomplished via an amplitude-taper on the elemental radiators. It is well known that proper manipulation of the elemental phases can also shape the antenna far-field pattern. A fairly simple transformation from a desired amplitude-taper to a phase-taper can yield nearly equivalent results.
