antenna structures with low side lobe levels are normally the main goal during antenna design. in this paper, a new method for reduction of radiation pattern side lobe level in phased array antenna with uniform and non-uniform weighting is presented. in this method, by changing the array elements weight or adding several elements, such as slc technique, the pattern with low side lobe level can ...

this paper presents the results of a study on the radiation characteristics of a plasma triangular antenna in the vhf band (30-300mhz) applying the method of moment. deriving the current distribution of the antenna, it shows the relationship between radiation characteristics of the plasma antenna and the plasma parameters. both theoretical and numerical results indicate that if the plasma frequ...

In this paper, a new method for radar cross section reduction of a monopole antenna is proposed. In this method, a plasma helix like fluorescent bulbs is placed around the antenna element. The selected plasma parameter for this medium acts as an absorber without disturbing the antenna performance. The simulations show that radar cross section of simulated antenna is reduced in a wide frequency ...

A low cross-polarization slot array antenna in the narrow wall of ridge waveguide is presented. A non-angled slot which is created in the narrow wall of the ridge waveguide is considered to be used as radiating resonant slot. The normalized resistance and normalized reactance curves are presented for design purposes. A six element slot array waveguide antenna with ridges on its narrow wall is t...

detection of stealth targets calls for employment of high-power radars which itself relies on usage of high-gain antennas like large parabolic reflectors. in the past few years, using of an array with many small reflectors instead of a large reflector antenna has been considered. this method provides enhanced eirp by a factor of n2 where n is the number of array antennas. regarding improvement ...
