integrating microstrip antenna with solar panel

[widpmine]

Hallo;

Is it possible to integrate a microstrip antenna with a scanning(rotating following the sun) solar panel?

If possible, will the microstrip antenna be adaptive or just a passive one?

thank you

Why you need antenna to detect sun direction? more simpler solution like heat sensors should be available.

i was talking about the microstrip used for signal reception basically for TVs which can be used in areas with no electricity supply, mostly in africa.

Hi,
can you give me more information? I am not sure, that I understand you exactly. You have solar panel and microstrip antenna... and what do you want?

I had read a paper on IEEE before regarding solar panels on satellite and the effect on the nearby antenna.

Maybe you can try to search for it.
