Playing with Gaussian arrays I find I can make irregular
radiation fields, this presumably because the arbitary border
repetively seals its borders as the radiation escapes.
I suppose one can equate it somewhat to a balloon with
escaping air pulses going in different directions as equilibrium
is reformed.
I understand that broadcasting arrays are strictly controlled
so I wondered if an array that could radiate in pre designated
areas would be useful as it would not require a reflector to repell
radiation.

Examples in use for many decades already are the directional arrays used in
AM broadcasting, where all elements (towers) in the array are driven. The
element spacings & orientations, and the relative power & phase applied to
each element determine the net radiation pattern of the array.

Let me ask another question. Since a gaussian array is in equilibrium
it can be placed in a complex circuit to generate a pass filter or
something like that. Does this fact provide any advantages? Also with
regard to the irregular radiation field the Gaussian array with a
single feed point can duplicate the present broadcasting method of
arrays where phasing harneses would be required. Just a thought

array with a single feed point can duplicate the present

All you need to do then is to prove it, and get the FCC to accept it.

What about the use of complex circuitry methods od design does that
present any advantage? We now can insert lumped constants ?
