    This document summarizes the steps to calculate the array factor of a linear array antenna with N elements spaced at a distance d. It first calculates the relative currents between array elements using a Tchebysheff polynomial. It then symmetrizes the current distribution if N is even. Finally, it calculates the array factor as the cumulative sum of the currents multiplied by phase terms and plots the result polarly.
