  • Abstract
    This paper reports on the radiation patterns measured on a X-band antenna loaded with a periodic array of metallic wires. Design details of the wire medium to provide low return losses in the range 8 to 12 GHz are given. Using different test setups, the diagram patterns are measured at different frequencies associated with minimal return losses. Radiation characteristics of the loaded antenna are discussed.
