Abstract

Due to the mutual coupling of conformal array cannot be ignored, this article proposes a simple compensation method for the mutual coupling compensation. The method calculates he far field direction diagram of the array by Simplifying array element classification, and then obtains the correction with the relationship between the isolation unit pattern and the active pattern, in the end, by obtaining correct incentives compensates the array. The simulation results show that this method is better compensated the error which the mutual coupling brings.
