| Summary: | This work proposes and describes a deep learning-based approach utilizing recurrent neural networks (RNNs) for beam pattern synthesis considering uniform linear arrays. In this particular case, the deep neural network (DNN) learns from previously optimized radiation patterns as inputs and generates complex excitations as output. Beam patterns are optimized using a genetic algorithm during the training phase in order to reduce sidelobes and achieve high directivity. Idealized and test beam patterns are employed as inputs for the DNN, demonstrating their effectiveness in scenarios with high prediction complexity and closely spaced elements. Additionally, a comparative analysis is conducted among the three DNN architectures. Numerical experiments reveal improvements in performance when using the long short-term memory network (LSTM) compared to fully connected and convolutional neural networks. |
