I need to design microsrip serial array antenna with Taylor amplitude distribution coefficients.
How can I design unequal Wilkinson 1:32 divider according the Taylor amplitude distribution coefficients?
Can someone give an you you-tube example?

and for more information google for "Qaroot and Dib wilkinson"

I think you may go backwards from patches, for example 4 element array with distribution (in %)
20 30 30 20

taking two patches from the left, normalizing using sum of 20+30=50:
20/50=0.4 30/50=0.6
So here we need Wilkinson with unequal split of 40% to the left patch, and 60% to the right patch
Mirroring for right part of array: 60% 40%
Upper level splitter will be equal. Final image:
----50-50----
40-60-60-40
