Design and Analysis of Directive Microstrip Patch Array Antennas with Series, Corporate and Series-Corporate Feed Network

Abstract: In the recent years the development in communication systems requires the development of low cost, minimal weight and low profile antenna that is capable of maintaining high performance over a wide spectrum of frequencies. This technological trend has focused much effort into the design of a microstrip patch antenna. The aim of this paper is to design and simulate a rectangular microstrip patch array antenna using HFSS software "Ansoft-High Frequency Structure Simulator" and compare the performance of 2 elemen… Show more

“…Main limitation of microstrip is that it radiate efficiently only over a narrow band of frequencies and they can't operate at the high power levels of waveguide, coaxial line, or even strip-line [5]. This can be minimized with the help of various array configurations [8], feeding methods [4], dielectric materials [9, 10, and 11] and ground planes. Antenna arrays are used to scan the beam of an antenna system, to increase the directivity, gain and enhance various other functions which would be difficult with single element antenna.…”

“…The effects of feed network are also very important in a high gain microstrip antenna array. There are different types of feeding techniques to improve the gain as well as directivity such as series, corporate and series-corporate, among which series-corporate feed has a higher directive gain than series and corporate feeding technique [6]. Now for an omnidirectional antenna we need to suppress side lobes.…”
