this month's Fast Moving Front in the field of Computer
Sciences. The author has also sent along images of
their work.

The following figures, taken from my paper, briefly describe
the main results. The figures below correspond respectively to
figs. 3, 7, and 9 in my paper: “Linear array geometry
synthesis with minimum sidelobe level and null control using
particle swarm optimization” as published in the journal
“IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION
53 (8)” in August, 2005.

Figure 1: Normalized patterns of the
10-element linear array obtained using
three different methods. The regions of
suppressed SLL are [0º, 82º] and
[98º, 180º], and no prescribed
nulls.

Figure 1: Normalized patterns of the
28-element array obtained using three
different methods. The SLL suppression
region is [0º, 180º], and
prescribed nulls at: 55º, 57.5º,
60º, 120º, 122.5º,
125º.

Figure 3: Normalized patterns of the
32-element linear array obtained using
three different methods. The regions of
suppressed SLL are [0º, 87º] and
[93º, 180º], and prescribed nulls
at: 81º, 99º.
