  • Abstract
    Because of their potential interest in satellite communications, the problem of synthesizing shaped beams by means of isophoric sparse arrays is dealt with. After briefly recalling some useful recent results, a synthesis strategy is proposed and discussed. Preliminary results, which confirm the interest of the proposed architecture and the effectiveness of the developed tools, are also shown.
