Abstract

The paper considers the structure of solutions to the problem of synthesis of a linear microstrip antenna array corresponding to a prescribed radiation pattern in terms of power. It is shown, based on the methods of nonlinear analysis, that typical features of this class of problems are nonuniqueness and bifurcation of solutions. The number and qualitative characteristics of the solutions depending on the regularization parameter are investigated.
