Abstract :
This paper presents a new optimization method for computing the coupling coefficients of the directional couplers constituting a Skobelev Network. The adopted method succeeds in improving the Sub-Array Radiation Pattern performance in terms of sidelobe level with negligible effects on the main beam.
