Basics of Antenna Arrays
Antenna Arrays are widely used for the production of desired radation pattern(s). An antenna array is a set of connected antennas (elements) that are in close proximity and work together as a single antenna. The array theory and the array factor are presented in this resource, focusing on linear arrays and analysing the effects of different array parameters such as element spacing and array size. The lecture presentation explains also how an antenna array can be configured in Ansys HFSS.
