Abstract

Dipole antennas are suitable in wireless multi-band technology, because they are simple to design and have excellent radiation properties. Also, it is well known that analysis of series-fed strip dipoles antennas are very hard to do because of the presence of dielectric inhomogeneity. In addition, the strip dipoles are closely spaced and connected through transmission lines that are integral part of the antenna. Therefore, an analysis method that takes into account the presence of dielectric substrate and the effect of connecting lines is presented to accurately design these antennas. In this paper, arrays of printed strip dipoles antennas are analyzed based on moment method in the spectral domain. The double-sided configuration has been selected because it offers several practical advantages. In this paper, further we will complicate the analysis by taking into account broadband antennas comprised of six series fed strip dipoles.
