Abstract :
We demonstrate a corporate fed coplanar folded slot antenna (CFSA) array and its application for beam steering. The design methodology, the return loss and the radiation pattern measurements of the CFSA array are presented. The beam steering of the array can be achieved by using a phased array that is incorporated with three phase shifters.
