Abstract :
Five- and eight-element patch antenna arrays linearly fed by dielectric image lines have been developed with good E-plane and H-plane patterns. The measured results and the calculated beam steering angles agree very well. Crosspolarisations are 20 dB and side lobes are 15 dB below the main lobe
