  • Abstract
    A simple and fast method to accelerate the global optimization approaches used in array thinning is described. This method tabulates the contribution of every array element to the far-field pattern in order to improve the numerical efficiency of the optimization algorithm employed. Experiments using our proposal alongside with a genetic algorithm reduce the search computation time about 90%.
