  • Abstract
    Finite phased arrays of rectangular microstrip patch antennas are analyzed. Reflection coefficient magnitudes, element patterns and efficiency (based on power lost to surface waves) are calculated for various sized arrays on substrates of practical interest and are compared with previous infinite array solutions. Measured element patterns and mutual coupling data for a small array are presented and compared with calculations.
