Abstract:
In this paper a deterministic technique for the synthesis of linear aperiodic arrays with an assigned number of elements and amplitude excitation is introduced. The technique is then extended for the synthesis of planar aperiodic arrays by applying different linear synthesis techniques separately, sequentially or iteratively.
