Abstract :
The frequency characteristics of a grid array antenna printed on a dielectric substrate are revealed using the method of moments (MoM). It is found that the grid array antenna radiates a dual beam when the operating frequency is appropriately chosen. The direction of the maximum radiation is changed with frequency, with a change in the gain.
