Abstract
Shaped line-source antenna beams can be synthesised by introducing com plex roots in a Taylor line source distribution to achieve null fillin g in the shaped region. Optimisation of these roots and others allows individual control of the amplitude of ripples and the heights of unsh aped sidelobes up to any specified order. The corresponding continuous aperture distribution can be made pure real by appropriate root-pairi ng, which makes the results applicable, via sampling, to resonantly sp aced linear arrays.
