Array Antenna Design

Array antenna design involves arranging multiple individual antennas (elements) in a specific pattern to work together as a single, more powerful antenna. By controlling the position and phase of each element, engineers can shape the overall radiation pattern—focusing signals in desired directions or creating specific coverage areas. This technique enhances signal strength, directs signals more precisely, and can electronically steer beams without physically moving the antenna. Array antennas are commonly used in radar, satellite communication, and 5G networks to improve performance, coverage, and adaptability in complex environments.
