Phased array antenna patterns
I had a simple question in regards to phased array antenna patterns.
If a phased array is trying to send a narrow beam in a specific direction, how do the other side lobes get reduced and/or eliminated? Are the individual antenna transmitters/elements not omnidirectional themselves? If not, what are the characteristics of their patterns? I ask this because I'm trying to understand how tracking radars can send narrow beams in the desired direction without significant secondary lobes to interfere with returns from the desired lobe. Thanks in advance for any insight! Dave |
