Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) In the wide area sensor networks, a directive antenna is useful to increase spectrum efficiency, lower sensor node energy consumption, and mitigate interferences from other systems. Although beam-forming antennas are good candidates to cover spotted areas surrounding a base station by "physically one design of antenna", there have been issues to be solved on beam-forming antenna such as large antenna physical size and high side lobe level. In this paper, 2-element beam-forming antenna composed of narrowly spaced patch antenna arrays is proposed, analyzed and tested with a prototype. The result shows the proposed antenna is good enough for practical applications.
