Abstract :
A novel neural-network (NN)-based technique for antenna array synthesis and a prototype of antenna array designed using it are presented. This technique is able to calculate the voltages that must be applied to the radiating elements considering all the physical properties of each element of the array and the coupling effects between all of them.
