Abstract :
A broadband series-fed antenna array using coupling mechanism is presented. A feeding network including 180° phase shifter is used to feed the antenna in both sides. For broadband operation, each part mush have wide bandwidth and here, for antenna, mechanism coupling and for phase shifter, coupled lines improve bandwidth. The simulation results show that the antenna array has appropriate reflection coefficient, side lobe level, peak gain, and radiation patterns.
