If only the far-zone fields are considered, and the viewing distance is much greater than the size of the array, the lines joining the elemental antennas and the field point P can be taken to be parallel. Since the orientation of the elemental antennas is the same, the directions of their fields are the same as well. In this way, the resultant field of the array is equal to the scalar sum of the fields of the elemental antennas, so that I x z y ? d d d ? ? ? ? n 4 3 1 2 I e- j? I e- j2? I e- j3?
