Description
Summary:In this paper a microstrip antenna array is carried out. The array has two rectangular patches in a linear 2 x 1 array. This work includes the design, simulation, implementation and evaluation of both, a single radiator and the linear two rectangular microstrip antenna array. The antenna array was designed and built for low-cost and noncomplex manufacturing techniques, because the array is dedicated for educational purposes in under-graduate radiocommunication courses at Metropolitan Autonomous University. The mechanical tolerance in the structure dimensions is around 0.2 mm, that is easy to be obtained by an inexpensive CNC or very well-known optical techniques. The simulation and optimization of the array was computed using HFSS and the results of this stage include antenna patterns and the reflection coefficient (S11). Besides, the experimental evaluation of the array is quite similar to the simulations results in both, radiation patterns and the frequency response using the matching interval, for a single radiator and the 2x1 array.
