A method for array elements arrangement of an L-shaped array antenna based on inheritance of acquired character. The method relates to the field of array elements design for L-shaped array antenna. In order to solve the problem that the arrangement of the current L-shaped array antenna system has a weak local ability, the invention firstly encodes for the J_K array, then calculates a fitness of each chromosome in the population, randomly selects two parent chromosomes according to a overwriting probability of inheritance of acquired character, calculates a percentage of gene delivery, performs a overwriting operation to generate a new population, repeats the overwriting operation to generate the final new population; calculates the fitness of each chromosome in the population, repeats the iteration until a predetermined termination condition is met, and obtains the optimal population gene; then determines the array elements arrangement of the L-shaped array antenna according to the optimal population gene.
