Abstract

Polarization isolation of antennas is among the widely used methods for providing electromagnetic compatibility of various radio and electronic facilities. However, it turns out to be efficient in the only case when the cross-polar radiation of the antennas has sufficiently low level. Suggested in this paper is a method for optimizing the current distribution in an antenna array to provide its high performance along with suppression of the power radiated by cross-polar waves.
