Abstract
In this paper a phased array antenna is described that is designed with the help of a genetic algorithm for scan angles out to 60° from broadside. The focus is on simplifying the manufacturing of the diagonally adjoining pixels and on numerical results for thin antennas. The effects of the corner to corner contacts are studied and results for two synthesized elements ar Test and measurement requirements on wireless devices
