Radiation and Antennas: Networks and Mutual Coupling

This lecture covers various types of networks used in antennas, such as equidistant linear, binomial, and variable point networks. It discusses the importance of a theory of networks, mutual coupling between elements, and the influence of mutual coupling on radiation. The instructor explains the concept of generic networks, current density, and the assumption of zero mutual coupling. Additionally, the lecture explores the impact of relative phase shift, reactive elements, and infinite networks on antenna performance.
