Thinned arrays, however, are known to exhibit high peak sidelobe levels (PSL) if not suitably designed [1]. As a consequence, design techniques able to control and reduce the PSL of non-regular arrays have been subject of research since their introduction [1]-[5]. date: 2011-01 type: Technical Report type: NonPeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://www.eledia.org/students-reports/358/1/DISI-11-175.C192.pdf identifier: Oliveri, Giacomo and Caramanica, Federico and Rocca, Paolo and Massa, Andrea (2011) Rectangular Thinned Array Design by McFarland Difference Sets.
