            Abstract : 
In this paper, a kind of microstrip Yagi antenna whose central frequency is 5.2GHz is designed, because of its planar and end-fire characteristics, it is sticked on a cylindrical supporter to form a conformal monopulse antenna; the performance of antenna is simulated in electromagnetic simulation software HFSS.
