  • Antenna array using sandwiched radiating elements above a ground plane and fed by a stripline
    Patent number: 9502780
    Abstract: An exemplary antenna array has first self-complementary antenna cells, e.g. bowtie antennas, disposed in a first plane in rows and columns. Additional bowtie antenna cells are disposed in a second plane parallel to the first plane and are aligned in corresponding rows and columns. A first stripline disposed between the first and second planes carries RF signals to/from the first and second bowtie antenna cells. A slot feed couples the RF signals between the first stripline and each of the first and second bowtie antenna cells. A conductive layer in a third plane parallel to the first and second planes serves as a ground plane for signals radiated from/to the first and second bowtie antenna cells.
