ABSTRACT:
A constant gain sector beam array is obtained by applying equal amplitude, equal phase excitations to a sector array characterized by a curved array geometry. In a simple form, the curve is the arc of a portion of a circle. The radiation pattern can be further enhanced by using a more complex curvature geometry, and by minor adjustments to the amplitudes in the slots. Other forms of shaped beams, such as a cosecant squared antenna pattern, may be obtained by appropriately shaping the curvature geometry.
