Abstract :
An iterative method of power synthesis for reconfigurable arrays of arbitrary geometry is presented, that allows to synthesize a given number of desired patterns, simultaneously controlling the electric field in a region close to the antenna and the dynamic range ratio (DRR) of the array excitations. Each of the synthesized patterns can be transformed into any of the others by modifying only the excitation phases. A numerical example is proposed.
