Wideband antenna array for real-time data and video transmission

The increasing demand for safety and security in the different means of transport (carriers) leads to a growing need for real-time video monitoring systems. The significant limitation was that the video feed could only be stored locally and downloaded once the carrier was arrived at the destination. Recently, an important progress has been made for overcoming this challenge, and we are starting to see a significant deployment of real-time high-quality video transmission. In this paper, a novel wideband antenna array for real-time data and high-quality video transmission is presented. The antenna array consists of four elements, disturbed regularly over the ground plane. This antenna array is designed to use a large combination of mobile frequency bands in order to transmit the desired information. For experimental tests of the antenna performances, a prototype of the designed antenna array is manufactured and then tested. A good agreement between simulated and measured results is obtained and validates the design.
