Compact 8x8 butler matrix for ISM band

Mitigation of interference due to multiple signals coexisting in the same frequency band can be achieved through the implementation of a smart antenna system that employs scanning of multiple and simultaneously available beams. These multiple and simultaneously available beams can be generated throu...
