Abstract :
A 8×8 reconfigurable array antenna with dual lineal/circular polarization for WIMAX applications at 3.5 GHz has been designed. The antenna is composed of 4 elements basic cell sub-arrays with a Butler matrix inside. The basic cell sub-arrays are combined by means of digital phase shifters. The measured results of the radiating elements and RF modules are presented.
