The Course on Antenna Synthesis faces three topics corresponding to the two main aspects of Antenna Synthesis, namely external and internal synthesis, and to numerical and implementation issues of synthesis algorithms. Firstly, key points of the Antenna Synthesis problem are given, providing a general, sound and unitary mathematical framework to the synthesis, discussing the role of field properties, degrees of freedom, the trapping problem and ill-position. Then, having introduced the role of optimization in Antenna Synthesis, the general issues of local and global procedures is discussed as well as the numerical issues related to the need of dealing with complex electromagnetic structures. In the light of the above framework, canonical synthesis approaches are illustrated and specific topics in array Antenna Synthesis connected to the use of evolutionary algorithms and unconventional advanced systems are analyzed. Finally, the problem of internal synthesis is presented with attention to the design of complex beam-forming networks and to realization problems.
The Course hosts also Sessions on the numerical implementation of some synthesis techniques on standard computing platforms. In particular, each student will lay his hands-on the implementations of some of the synthesis algorithms.
