Figure 19: Narrow dips in the <strong>array</strong> directivity pattern. The figure shows the directivity<br />

of an 50×20 <strong>array</strong>, with 1.5 wavelength spacing, in the vertical plane through<br />

the elements’ direction. The element has gain G e = 10 dBi. Both the curve<br />

<strong>for</strong> vertical elements and elements tilted by 40 ◦ are shown. Also is shown the<br />

directivity of a dense (D < 0.5) <strong>array</strong> of the same physical boundary.
