Beam Scanning Properties of a Ferrite Loaded Microstrip Patch Antenna

Axially magnetized ferrite loaded microstrip patch antenna (MPA) with tunable beam scanning properties is presented. Ferrite cylinders are optimally positioned within the near field region of the patch to introduce Ey phase tapers needed for beam scanning. The interaction between the radiated EM wav...
