Abstract :
The results of calculation and experimental research of microstrip antenna arrays at 30 GHz are presented. The technique for calculation and design of traveling and standing wave modes of such arrays for linear and circular polarized radiation is given. The results of topology calculations for the various shaped patterns and different levels of losses in a material of a microstrip line are given. The experimental research of the antenna arrays (nearfield measurements and multi-frequency measurements in a far-field zone) verifies the presented method of design.
