Pattern synthesis of Antenna array has gained much attention over the last years as they constitute an important role in the modern communication systems. Unit circle-based techniques such as Schelkunoff null placement method have proved their effectiveness to synthesize uniformly spaced linear arrays. Nonuniformly spaced antenna array pattern synthesis has been investigated and interesting results have been obtained. In this work, the unit circle representation approach is applied to synthesize nonuniformly spaced and nonuniformly excited linear arrays. The objective is to accurately place nulls in the desired directions while achieving the least possible sidelobe level. The problem is cast as an optimization problem that is solved using the Teaching Learning Based Optimization (TLBO). Examples are dealt with to prove the design approach effectiveness and flexibility for modern communication system applications.

Based on the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization method utilized for pattern synthesis of linear array without constraints, null derivative constraints are proposed to implement pattern synthesis with broad nulls. The advantage of the simplified computation resulted from steering vector orthogonalization in unconstrained orthogonal approach is maintained, and the uniform or non-uniform linear array pattern synthesis can be realized by this method. The experimental results show that the null constrained orthogonal approach can fulfill linear array pattern synthesis with constrains such as null constrains, first-order and second-order derivative null constraints.
