Cosecant-Squared Radiation Pattern Synthesis of Conformal Microstrip Arrays

Abstract

Contrary to the rectilinear and planar arrays, the conformal arrays are very suitable for enlightening the hidden zones. In this paper we will carry out the cosecant-squared radiation pattern synthesis of conformal microstrip arrays. This aim will be achieved by the use of a deterministic optimization method that developed for this type of arrays. This synthesis and by means of the results which that procure, constitutes a database for the radar applications, targets tracking, satellites and radio guidance.
