| Popis: | Grating lobe mitigation was achieved for planar, wideband dual-polarized Vivaldi arrays through the rotation and translation of equilateral pentagonally shaped subarrays that form an approximately circular array. The subarray outlines can be adjusted in order to included fewer elements per subarray, but this will result in less grating lobe reduction. By using dual-polarized elements optimized polarization in the main beam can be achieved. The array patterns were determined with both measured and simulated single element patterns of the dual-polarized Vivaldi element. The mutual coupling between the elements in the array was shown to be negligible. |
