Abstract :
A high gain array of uniformly and closely spaced printed dipoles made of thick film YBa2Cu3O7-x is demonstrated. The directivity of the array in a given reference direction is optimised with respect to element position and is subject to a constraint in size, for a specific series feed network. Experimental results show both superior gain performance over a similar supercooled Ag array and high directivity
