Abstract :
In this paper, the experimental results of the PAA using crossed dipole are described and discussed. Firstly, we analyze the basic characteristics of the element antenna, and then, a PAA using the element antenna is analyzed focusing on the beam scanning characteristic of the PAA. Then, we fabricate the array antenna and measure the beam scanning characteristic of the fabricated antenna. A polarization control circuit is also described.
