In modern wireless communication system one of the criteria is control over the antenna beam pattern. Antenna array provides better control over the beam pattern and provides flexibility of scanning in the required direction. The important parameter for consideration in array is spacing between elements. As the spacing between elements is increased beyond half wavelength, the steerability from broadside will significantly reduce due to appearance of grating lobe. In this paper a model of thinned aperiodic linear phased arrays is presented. Differential Evolution algorithm is used for synthesizing the performance of peak side lobe levels
