  • Abstract
    A method which involves only simple calculations is used to design nonuniformly spaced linear arrays for shaped-beam patterns. The method is based on Gaussian quadrature. The examples given show that it is possible to obtain patterns which compare favorably with those of uniformly spaced array methods. This is accomplished by using fewer elements, smaller overall length, and lower variation of element current amplitudes.
