Abstract :
The effects of mutual coupling on the patterns of unequally spaced arrays are not generally negligible. A simple method for approximating the effect of coupling for the purpose of checking the sensitivity of an array design is presented and justified. Attempts to include the approximation in a synthesis technique have not been successful.
