Abstract

This paper designs an array antenna with a planar printed structure. The antenna element adopts a rectangular slot antenna, and the antenna element is excited by a T-shaped feeding structure. The microstrip power distribution network is used to feed the antenna radiator array with equal power. The microstrip power distribution network and slot radiator array are located on top and bottom of dielectric substrate, and the array antenna is implemented by use of the printed circuit technology. In order to improve the gain, a metal reflector ground is placed below the dielectric substrate. A planar printed slot array antenna working in X band is designed. The coaxial line is used to feed the array antenna at the bottom. The whole antenna structure is easy to feed and suitable for fabrication. The designed array antenna was numerically calculated using full wave electromagnetic simulation software. At a working frequency of 10.1GHz, the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of the antenna is about 1.35, and the gain is about 21.46dB. The design of the antenna scheme can be used as a reference for the actual application of engineering.
