Abstract | ||||
Abstract: A rectangular planar array antenna synthesis technique based on Genetic Algorithm optimization is used to achieve sufficient link margin for low earth orbit (LEO) satellites antenna, by adjusting the antenna gain. A genetic algorithm (GA) is used to optimize the array excitation. Thinning [1] of elements is used with different excitation techniques. A phased array antenna with rectangular aperture and cos1.5 elements power pattern is assumed. | ||||
