© 2017 Euraap. Selecting appropriate element orientations can significantly reduce the sidelobe level of the antenna array. In this paper, a binary coded genetic algorithm (BCGA) which selects the element orientations from specified discrete angles, is proposed to reduce the sidelobe level (SLL) of the array. Compared to the conventional GA, the BCGA is much faster in this application. Synthesis results show the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.
