Abstract :
In this paper two antenna arrays with Fan and Pencil beams in one embodiment are presented to cover the 9–10.5 GHz frequency band. The minimum obtained gain is 15 dBi for Fan-beam and 23 dBi for pencil beam with SLL better than 20 dB in entire frequency bandwidth. The beam widths are 80° × 10° and 10° × 10° for Fan beam and Pencil beam arrays, respectively.
