Design of concentric ring antenna arrays for isoflux radiation in GEO satellites

[摘要] References(12)Cited-By(9)The design of concentric ring arrays for isoflux radiation is reported in this paper. This design considers the reduction of the side lobe level and the isoflux radiation requirements for Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellites. The optimization problem considers the spacing between rings and the levels of amplitude excitations. The well-known method of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is utilized for the optimization. The obtained results could lead the satellite hardware to be reduced significantly even more that results presented previously in the literature.
