In this letter, nonuniform period time-modulated arrays (NTMAs) are investigated and analyzed in terms of radiated power at harmonics, and a more general and accurate closed-form expression is derived. Although there are some studies on the radiated power of NTMAs, it is claimed that the derived exp...
