Abstract

The Dipole is a simple antenna element used for communication purpose. The Planar Concentric Circular Antenna Array with Dipole radiators is practical antenna array to scan the entire azimuthal plane. In the present paper an attempt is made to reduce the Side Lobe Level and Beam width of such an Antenna Array. A very efficient optimization technique BAT algorithm is applied for the optimization of the antenna array. As it is well known that thinning process has lot of advantages the thinning is applied on the antenna array. These results are compared with uniform amplitude distribution of fully populated array.
