Pattern Synthesis with Phase-Only Control using Array Polynomial Technique

A new synthesis technique using the phase shifters of the linear array elements is developed using the array polynomial technique. The array factor is expressed as the product of sub polynomials such that their roots are located on the unit circle. All array elements are active for any arbitrary non-prime number of the array elements. The results show that the developed method in the form of an analytical solution can synthesize the prescribed patterns using the phase shifters of the linear antenna arrays.
