TY - RPRT Y1 - 2018/// UR - http://www.eledia.org/students-reports/767/ TI - A Novel Approach for the Design of Planar Thinned Arrays Based on Genetic Algorithms and Almost Difference Sets N2 - This work presents a novel hybrid procedure that is able to combine the efficiency of analytical almost difference sets (ADSs) designs and the effectiveness of genetic algorithm (GA)-based search strategies for the design of thinned planar arrays. The proposed approach is able to overcome the current limitations of state-of-the-art analytical thinning methods for planar apertures. Some numerical examples will be shown in order to verify the features and the potentialities of the proposed ADSGA design technique. M1 - technical_report A1 - Salucci, M. A1 - Gottardi, G.
