Abstract: A planar 4×4 phased array including modified E-shaped radiation elements is designed and fabricated to be incorporated in a Relay Station (RS) for realizing the communication with the Base Station(BS).
The proposed array provides 12.4% bandwidth at the 3.5GHz frequency band and gain of 21.2dB. Moreover a beam-forming module is designed and simulated, aimed to be connected to the proposed array, realizing beam-forming applications. This module provides 650 MHz bandwidth around 3.5GHz frequency band and is used for proper power division and controlling the amplitude/phase of the excitation currents that will feed the planar 4×4 array.Keywords-
