Abstract :
A new method of designing an end-fire plate antenna array is presented in this paper. To improve directivity and gain, the four elements array of plate surface wave antenna located along axis direction was made. From the simulations and practical measurement, the conclusion can be made that this structure is very advance to develop high-directivity end-fire antenna array.
