Abstract :
To build microstrip antenna arrays of slot-coupled elements, the authors investigated a series feed configuration. In order to respect the constraints imposed on the amplitude and phase of each patch, the influence of the individual radiating elements (patch and slot) was determined using the chain matrix method. One of the most important application is the achievement of a 2 imbricate antenna array.
