Abstract

In this study, a simple and cost-effective configuration to broaden the beamwidths of the patch antenna has been studied. The proposed wide beamwidths antenna consists of two parasitic magnetic dipoles placed orthogonally to a driven electric dipole. Due to the complementary far-field radiation behaviors of both antennas in their respective E-plane and H-plane, the antenna half-power beamwidth broadens. An excellent wide beam of 138.6° and 110.9° in E-plane and H-plane, respectively, has been achieved at 4.72 GHz. The proposed antenna has been fabricated and tested. Measurements shows good agreement with the simulations. The proposed antenna can find its application for the increasing the scanning coverage of the patch antenna arrays.
