Abstract
The design aspects concerning the sparse array antennas are discussed. Commonly, the beamwidth, the side-lobes level and the gain are the relevant features in antenna design procedures. These parameters are evaluated for different sparse topologies and generalised design relations are provided. The capabilities of sparse architectures are evaluated by comparison with uniform arrays for a similar level of performanceKeywords
