Abstract:
Synthesis of phased array antennas generating shaped patterns by exploiting phase tapering only is a challenging problem. A phase‐only tapering permits maximizing the DC to RF power efficiency and results to be particularly useful in satellite applications with stringent constraints on the available power. Such a synthesis is a highly nonlinear problem most effectively addressed via stochastic optimization techniques. In this paper several basis functions to represent the phase distribution are traded‐off and compared, within an invasive weed optimization paradigm.
