| Abstract | The previously described hybrid smart-antenna system solves the transmitter receiver alignment problem of 60-GHz wireless systems when high gain antennas are used. Utilizing multiple highly directional array elements and coherently combining the outputs of a few elements adaptively, the hybrid smart antenna achieves the desired performance and results in significant hardware cost and computational complexity savings. For optimal alignment, however, the output power of the hybrid smart antenna should stay constant over the scanning range. This minimizes the so-called scalloping effects and necessitates a careful selection of the array elements being used in beamforming. In this letter, a genetic-algorithm solution to optimally adjust the beam pattern overlaps the array elements to minimize the output-power fluctuations in a given scan range. It is shown that while the hybrid algorithm may perform satisfactorily with less than one-third of the total number of the array elements (e.g., two or three elements in an array of ten antennas), there is an optimal number of elements for a given array that provides minimal power fluctuation in a specified scan range. A tradeoff between the acceptable level of power fluctuation and the total received power is identified. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
