Optimization of thinned aperiodic linear phased arrays using genetic algorithms to reduce grating lobes during scanning
TL;DR: This paper investigates a method of creating thinned aperiodic linear phased arrays through the application of genetic algorithms that will suppress the grating lobes with increased steering angles and place restrictions on the driving-point impedance of each element so that they are well behaved during scanning.

Injection- and phase-locking techniques for beam control [antenna arrays]
Robert A. York,T. Itoh +1 more
TL;DR: Injection-locking and phase-locked-loop (PLL) techniques can be used to achieve synchronous operation of a number of antenna array elements, and allow for the manipulation of the phase distribution without additional phase-shifting circuitry as discussed by the authors.

Antenna–load interactions at optical frequencies: impedance matching to quantum systems
TL;DR: The physical basis of the light-matter interaction at the transition from the RF to optical regime is reviewed, the extension of antenna theory as needed for the design of impedance-matched optical antenna-load coupled systems are discussed, and several examples of the state of the art in design strategies are provided and suggest future extensions.

Termination-dependent diversity performance of coupled antennas: network theory analysis
Jon W. Wallace,Michael A. Jensen +1 more
TL;DR: The results from this paper reveal that for closely spaced antennas, the termination can play a noticeable role in determining the diversity gain offered by coupled antennas.
