Design and Optimization of a Coherent Beamforming Network for an Aperiodic Concentric Ring Array

In this work, a flexible and reconfigurable feeding network design for a nonuniform aperture on circular concentric ring arrays is proposed and analyzed. The network subsystem delivers coherent in-phase outputs with a Gaussian-like amplitude distribution, in a modular and basic topology based on set...
