Abstract
The implementation and field test of a BroadBand Electrically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator (BB-ESPAR) antenna [1], as well as a comparison between experimental and simulation results are presented in this paper. BB-ESPAR antenna was modeled, implemented and experimentally characterized. A prototype of the proposed antenna has experimentally produced a horizontal directivity of 8 dBi gain and VSWR less then 3:1 value in the frequency band [465–700] MHz. Experimental and simulation results showed a good agreement.
