Abstract :
The impact of number of elements on array factor shown in this paper. The array factor of an antenna is been a gain´s measurement. Therefore, a linear antenna will achieve a good signal´s propagation when they have ability to transmit the signal in the highest gain. This paper was investigated for 2, 3, 4 and 10 number of elements in the linear array antenna. Which are the spacing between elements is equal were fixed to half-wave lambda. It is observed that the array factor was increasing corresponding to the number of elements.
