A comparison of two types of uniform circular array configurations is presented in this paper. Due to its symmetrical geometry UCA is always targeted which results in minimal change inside lobe levels and beam width when scanned by a phased array antenna. Particle Swarm Optimization and Cuckoo algorithm are used for the calculation of complex weights of the array elements. Comparisons are drawn in the context of adaptive beam forming capabilities. Obtained results suggest that planar uniform circular array (9:10) using Cuckoo algorithm, has better beam forming properties with also reduced side lobe levels when compared to other geometry.展开更多
