An antenna array for scanning applications in ISM band

Abstract

With the advent of recent trends like Internet Of Things(IOT) and Tera Hertz communication networks, design of hardware operable for short range communications with less power has become vital. As most of the such technologies employ wireless communication, antennas are to be designed accordingly. So, an antenna array which operates at 2.4 GHz and is useful to detect signals in ISM band is proposed in this paper. The aim is to design an antenna which is able to scan over wide scan angles. But the low power opertaion makes the antenna operable only in short range. The proposed antenna is simulated and the results are satisfactory.
