Design of a high gain & ultra wideband microstrip array antenna for avalanche radar

This paper presents the design and construction of a microstrip array antenna operating at 5.3 GHz, to be used as an avalanche sensor in avalanche measurement. The advantage of the antenna is it can achieve a high gain of 15.6 dB with bandwidth of 90%. This was achieved by separating the feed networ...
