Wideband Analysis of Mutual Coupling Compensation Methods

Figure 8

Required calculations for the receiving mutual impedance method based on symmetry considerations. In (a), the induced terminal current by the excitation of element 9 in the absence of the other elements using an external incident plane wave is calculated. In (b)–(f), the induced terminal voltages of elements 5, 6, 2, 3, and 1 are separately calculated in the presence of element 9. The six calculations are sufficient to fill the coupling matrix estimate completely.
