Abstract: | An array of ring radiators which generates a symmetric search-light-type narrow beam with greatly reduced sidelobes is proposed. Such a narrow beam can find several applications related to acoustic remote sensing, telemetry, and specialized sonars. A design procedure which benefits from design techniques developed for linear arrays is detailed. The developed methodology requires only simple matrix operation and does not involve nonlinear optimization. The results indicate that radiation patterns with arbitrary sidelobe suppression can be achieved |
