A Broadside Linear Antenna Array

A broadside linear array of isotopic antennae. The analysis is along the maximum radiation axis which is determined by the antenna type. If real antennae are used the individual antenna directivity is added to the array.

As usual all results: AS IS, no responsibility assumed.

Basic Array Parameters

The spacing is uniform in lambdas.

The orientation angle used for the angled antenna choice.

The antenna directivity at the radiation angle

Note: Some antennas eg: the monopulse, do not have the maximum directivity along the main beam axis.

Broadside Isotropic Antenna with maximum radiation along antenna axis.

Normal Endfire Antenna with maximum radiation at 0deg or 180deg,

Hansen Woodyard Endfire Antenna with maximum radiation at 0deg or 180deg,

Angled Antenna with maximum radiation at specified angle.

Note:

Not all parameters are used. It depends upon the analysis choosen.

The analysis is for an isotropic antenna which is then corrected for the actual directivity of the antenna along the analysis plane.
