Annotation: The mutiual coupling in arc and ring antenna arrays at different amplitude and phase distribution is not sufficiently described. This article presents numerical investigation of the arc antenna array of vibrator radiators. The simulation results are shown in charts. The mutual coupling between radiators influence dependences of radiation pattern, directivity and impedance at different amplitude and phase exitation distribution are investigated. The integral equations method is incorporated.
