An antenna array achieves beam steering in a direction of 30° from the normal propagation direction. If the distance between the array elements (the inter-element distance) is 7.5 cm and the phase shift between the EM waves at adjacent elements is pi/2 radians, what is the frequency of the EM waves being transmitted?
Assume the attatched value in calculation.
Design a Dolph-Tschebyscheff broadside array of 8 elements, 25-dB sidelobe level, and with a spacing of λ/2 between the elements to operate at 3 GHz. Choose a “rectangular patch” or a "dipole" antenna as the array element that operates at 3 GHz. For the final antenna design, determine the:
• Half-power beamwidth (in degrees). How much narrower or wider (in degrees) is thishalf-power beamwidth compared to that of a uniform array of the same number ofelements and spacing?• How much smaller or larger (in dB) is the gain (in dB) compared to that of a uniformarray of the same number of elements and spacing?
