An Effective Method for the Synthesis of Wideband and Wide-scanning Sparse Planar Array
2021
The matrix enhancement and matrix pencil (MEMP) has been used to reduce the number of array elements in the planar array with a shaped-beam pattern. This work extends the MEMP-based synthesis method to the synthesis of pattern reconfigurable sparse planar arrays in wide angle scanning and wide-band, which exploits a necessary restriction on finding the common element positions and individual element excitations for multiple patterns. Moreover, a unitary transformation is exploited into the multiple-composite equivalent Hankel matrix, which converts the complex computations of singular value decomposition (SVD) and eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) courses into real ones and effectively reduces the computation complexity. A new tactic is also restricted on avoiding too small element spacing with the consideration of the size of array antenna element. A set of numerical experiments is provided to validate the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed method.
