Textbook Question
Chapter 9, Problem 47P
A linear array arranged along the z axis consists of 12 equally spaced elements with d = λ/2. Choose an appropriate incremental phase delay δ so as to steer the main beam to a direction 30° above the broadside direction. Provide an expression for the array factor of the steered antenna and plot the pattern. From the pattern, estimate the beamwidth.

Calculate the First Null Beamwidth and the gain of a parabolic reflector antenna. The diameter of the reflector is 5m and the antenna is transmitting at 100 MHz.
Coexistence of radar systems. In this problem, we’re trying to determine whether two
radars are interfering with each other. We will need to generate antenna patterns (uniform
illumination, λ/2 spacing) for both radars and determine power densities and SNRs.
Radar 1
Frequency = 3 GHz
Peak power = 100 kW
Circular array – diameter = 2 meters
Transmit Loss = 2 dB
Radar 2
Frequency = 3 GHz
Peak power = 1000 W
Circular array – diameter = 0.5 meters
Duty 10%
Dwell time = 1 ms
Noise Figure = 4.5 dB
Total System Losses = 10 dB
Bandwidth = 1 MHz
When Radar 2 is turned on. Calculate the Radar 2 SNR on a 0 dBsm target 10 km
from Radar 2 (at broadside). Answer should be in dBs.
