β¦ Synopsis
An efficient method based on the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm for the linear antenna arrays pattern synthesis with prescribed nulls in the interference direction and minimum side lobe levels by the complex weights of each array element is presented. In general, the pattern synthesis technique that generates a desired pattern is a greatly nonlinear optimization problem. SQP method is a versatile method to solve the general nonlinear constrained optimization problems and is much simpler to implement. It transforms the nonlinear minimization problem to a sequence of quadratic subproblem that is easier to solve, based on a quadratic approximation of the Lagrangian function. Several numerical results of Chebyshev pattern with the imposed single, multiple, and broad nulls sectors are provided and compared with published results to illustrate the performance of the proposed method.
