The effects of mutual coupling among the array elements on the pattern and impedance characteristics of linear antenna arrays are examined. Based upon the assumption that the mutual impedance of two array elements depends only upon the separation of the elements, exact expressions are derived for the properties of infinite and semi-infinite arrays. Integral equations which describe finite arrays are derived and solved for special forms of the mutual impedance behavior and for large arrays.

Influence of the Aperture Edge Diffraction Effects on the Mutual Coupling Compensation Technique in Small Planar Antenna Arrays In this paper the quality of a technique to compensate for mutual coupling (and other phenomena) in small linear antenna arrays is investigated. The technique consists in calculation of a coupling matrix, which is than used to determine corrected antenna array excitation coefficients. Although the technique is known for more than 20 years, there is still very little information about how different phenomena existing in a real antenna arrays influence its performance. In this paper two models of antenna arrays are used. In the first model the effect of mutual coupling is separated from the aperture edge diffraction. In the second model antenna both mutual coupling and aperture edge diffraction effects are included. It is shown that mutual coupling itself can be compensated very well and an ultralow sidelobe level (i.e. -50 dB) could be achieved in practice. In the presence of diffraction effects -46.3 dB sidelobe level has been attained, but radiation pattern can be controled only in narrow angle range (i.e. up to ±60°).
