Optimal Directivity Synthesis of Linear array Sources

This paper compared and investigated the choice of optimal algorithm affects on the directivity synthesis of linear array in the satisfaction to the design specification of the desired directivity, convergence characteristic, and adaptability. Optimal algorithms use a quasi-Newton method(DFP and BFGS method) for realizing the desired directivity, used a quasi-ideal beam, steering beam, and a multi-beam, chosen as desired directivity. In the numerical result, this paper verified the effectiveness of the quasi-Newton method to the directivity synthesis, and offered a solving approach of occurred problems in the numerical simulation process.
