Abstract:

 

A useful and flexible method based on the tabu search algorithm for  the pattern synthesis of linear antenna arrays with the prescribed  nulls is presented.  Nulling of the pattern is achieved by controlling  both the phase and the position of each array element.  To show the  versatility of the present method, some design specifications such as  the maximum sidelobe level and the null depth level are considered by  introducing a set of weighting factors in the cost function  constructed for the tabu search algorithm.  Several illustrative  examples of a Chebyshev pattern with the imposed single, multiple and  broad nulls are given.
