Compact planar antenna array for point-to-point communication

Planar Antenna Array is often chosen due to its high gain, high directional, low profile, ease of fabrication and inexpensive to manufacture. However, not many related works have been done to design the planar antenna array in dual-band operating frequency. Futhermore, currently most of the microstr...
