Abstract
The paper tries to maximize the minimum power gain in a wide-beam mainlobe with a controllable peak sidelobe level (PSLL) by solving the power gain pattern synthesis (PGPS) problem. Since the PGPS problem is nonconvex, it cannot be solved effectively in polynomial time. In this paper, the nonconvex PGPS problem is simplified by converting it into two nonconvex subproblems. The first subproblem's solution space is divided into a finite set of smaller spaces in which the solution has a closed-form, resulting in the subproblem being pseudo-analytically solvable. The second subproblem's solution can be rapidly obtained with a bisection searching strategy. In such a way, the original problem can be solved effectively by iteratively solving these two subproblems. Another advantage of the proposed algorithm is that its convergence is theoretically guaranteed and the PSLL is strictly controllable. Numerical examples with both isotropic element pattern (IEP) array and active element pattern (AEP) array are simulated to validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithm by comparing it with the existing algorithms.
