An optimization problem for designing non-uniformly spaced, linear arrays is formulated and solved by means of an improved genetic algorithm (IGA) procedure. The proposed iterative method is aimed at minimizing the side-lobes level and thinning the array by optimizing the element positions and weights. Selected examples are included, which demonstrate the effectiveness and the design flexibility of the proposed method in the framework of electromagnetic synthesis of linear arrays.

Abstract
An optimization problem for designing non-uniformly spaced, linear arrays is formulated and solved by means of an improved genetic algorithm (IGA) procedure. The proposed iterative method is aimed at minimizing the side-lobes level and thinning the array by optimizing the element positions and weights. Selected examples are included, which demonstrate the effectiveness and the design flexibility of the proposed method in the framework of electromagnetic synthesis of linear arrays.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione
