Stair-step Patterns from Arrays

In array antennas, the shaped beams are produced either by amplitude control or phase control. In the present work, an attempt is made to produce them with the introduction of new aperture distribution without additional phase. Stair-step patterns are produced using Fourier transform method after introducing the proposed aperture distribution. The computed patterns are presented. These patterns are intensively used to identify more than one target moving in different altitudes and different angular regions.
