Broadside Pattern Correction Techniques for Conformal Antenna Arrays

Phase compensation techniques based on projection method and convex optimization (phase correction only) for comparing the maximum gain of a phase-compensated conformal antenna array have been discussed. In particular, these techniques are validated with conformal phased array antenna attached to a...

520 |a Phase compensation techniques based on projection method and convex optimization (phase correction only) for comparing the maximum gain of a phase-compensated conformal antenna array have been discussed. In particular, these techniques are validated with conformal phased array antenna attached to a cylindrical-shaped surface with various radii of curvatures. These phase compensation techniques are used to correct the broadside radiation pattern. It is shown that the maximum broadside gain compensated is still less than the gain of a linear flat array for any surface deformation. This fundamental maximum compensated gain limitations of the phase compensation techniques can be used by a designer to predict the maximum broadside obtainable theoretical gain on a conformal antenna array for a particular deformed surface.
