Compact Planar Sparse Array Antenna with Optimum Element Dimensions for SATCOM Ground Terminals
A novel antenna array architecture for low-cost and compact SATCOM mobile terminal is presented. Based on equal-amplitude aperiodic phased array with fewer active chain numbers, it possesses advantages including lower weight, less cost, and higher power efficiency compared to conventional periodic p...
