Optimizing Radiation Patterns of Thinned Arrays with Deep Nulls Fixed through Their Representation in the Schelkunoff Unit Circle and a Simulated Annealing Algorithm

The present work develops an innovative methodology for fixing deep nulls in radiation patterns of symmetrical thinned arrays while maintaining a low side lobe level (SLL) and a high directivity, implementing an optimization strategy based on the simulated annealing algorithm (SA). This procedure op...
