Abstract
The use of an array of loudspeaker elements for an acoustic sounder antenna is discussed. The effect of variations between the phase and amplitude of individual elements in the array is investigated and measurements are compared with the predicted radiation patterns for both a 6*6 square array and a 2*12 rectangular array of re-entrant horn loudspeakers.Keywords
