TITLE:
Tapers for large planar phased arrays on regular grids: simple design methods versus second-order cone programming
AUTHORS:
J. O. Coleman
ABSTRACT:
Design experiments compare taper-design approaches for a narrowband planar array of 10,000 or so elements on the triangular grid. Considered: a hexagonal-kernel McClellan transformation, a product of three 1D tapers, sampling Taylor's circular aperture, and second-order cone programming.
