Low Sidelobe Array By Amplitude Edge Tapering The Edge Elements

US Patent:
5017928, May 21, 1991
Filed:
Aug 22, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/570670
Inventors:
Randy L. Haupt - Monument CO
Christopher J. McCormack - Colorado Springs CO
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air
Force - Washington DC
International Classification:
G01S 306
US Classification:
342379
Abstract:
A system for reducing sidelobes of phased array antenna systems is performed by tapering the current amplitide of edge elements in the array while maintaining a full uniform current to the center elements in the array. Tapering may be adjusted with variable impedance devices until optimum sidelobe reduction is achieved.
