An efficient phase-only control method is presented to synthesise directive lobe and multilobe patterns, and create adaptive nulls in interference direction. The proposed method is based on iterative minimisation of a function that incorporates constraints imposed in each direction with respect to excitation phases. To verify the performances of the proposed technique, an eight-element array has been realised and tested for various types of beam configurations.
