J. Abele et al., INTRODUCTION OF MULTIPLE NULLS IN OTHERWISE OMNIDIRECTIONAL PATTERN OF CIRCULAR DIPOLE ARRAY, Electronics Letters, 34(14), 1998, pp. 1371-1373
The results are presented of a synthesis procedure for omnidirectional
radiation patterns with multiple nulls for circular arrays of vertica
l dipoles. The gain ripple in the omnidirectional region can be contro
lled by the use of window functions in the design procedure. The resul
ts are verified using the numerical electromagnetics code.
