Abstract
The synthesis of difference patterns via linear arrays, the elements of which are fed with the same amplitude, is proposed as a way to simplify the receiving chain and improve efficiency of the antenna. The problem is solved by means of suitable analytical procedures based on a ‘density taper’ approach. In particular, two different techniques are introduced and compared on the basis of a set of numerical examples. It is shown that one of them definitely outperforms the other one, and that constraints of practical interest can be satisfactorily fulfilled.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
