Abstract :
A new algorithm based on the IFT is presented for the synthesis of ultra-wideband arrays. This algorithm is able to achieve results at least as good as the best published results. Furthermore, the time required by the new algorithm is shorter than comparable published algorithms due to the use of simplified pattern computations.
