Hi everybody!
I'm new here, I'm finishing my studies, so I have to do a final project.
In one of my stages I have to built a array of microstrip patch antennas fed by coaxial wire (fed probe).
But after the design and simulation of the antennas in HFSS I realized that I have a problem.
The problem is that the total gain of my array is more or less the same of a single antenna of the same type.
To know how to simulate a fed probe patch antenna I installed the HFSS- antenna Design Kit to build the antenna in a HFSS environment and I also follow this tutorial:
-http://pt.scribd.com/doc/17748492/Hfss-Full-Book.
I also read that the array space between the antenna elements must be less than a half wavelength, but this wavelength is in a free space or in the microstrip?
I will put here my projecto to someone could see if I did anything wrong in the implementation of the array!
Please try to help me beacuse I don´t have to much time to end it.
Best regards,
Rodolfo
