Abstract: (559 Views)
In this paper, the design, simulation and manufacturing of broadband mono-pulse printed circuit array antenna in KU frequency band is presented. According to the need to use a low-volume and light-weight plate structure, the optimal antenna element has been selected. The feeding network is selected and simulated according to the array antenna element. The mono-pulse pattern shape is preserved in the bandwidth range. The simulation of the final structure of the mono-pulse array was done with CST software and a bandwidth of 30% with an average gain of 23 dB was obtained. To validate the designed structure, the measurement results of the constructed antenna are compared and presented with the simulation results. The measurement results were similar to the simulation results.
