Abstract :
The frequency and scan performance of E-plane scanned, ideal probe-excited, broadband stacked strip element phased arrays are numerically investigated. Results indicate a 1.85:1 bandwidth over a 45° E-plane scan range. The results clarify the operative physical phenomena and lead to an iterative element synthesis in the array environment
