Abstract :
We present a method for automation of planar multiunit phased antenna array (PAA) systems. The method is based on the optimized search method to find the extreme of the criterion function, i.e., to find the minimum reflection coefficient of the electromagnetic wave fed into the aperture of the PAA. An application example of the method for broadband scanning PAA with waveguide of arbitrary cross section is shown.
