Abstract	Equally divided patch antenna (EDPA) element and array designs with electrically large property (ELP) are proposed in this study. ELP is realized by dividing the square radiating patch into n × n (n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, …) elements gradually with the same overall size but higher resonant frequencies. The dispersion diagrams of the divided unit cells are extracted from the S-parameters and the field characteristics of dominant modes are described to confirm the ELP. Then 4 × 4 EDPA is taken as an example for detail analysis. By optimizing the geometry of the microstrip-line-slot feeding structure, different resonant modes can be merged and broad bandwidth is achieved. Furthermore, 1 × 2 array of the 4 × 4 EDPA is designed. Both the element and array antennas were fabricated for verification and good agreement between the measured and simulated results was obtained. The element and array owns −10 dB impedance bandwidth of 51.4 and 34.9% and maximum gain of 10.6 and 13.5 dBi, respectively. The proposed EDPA method can be used to design antenna element and array with ELP in higher-frequency band of microwave and millimetre-wave band for their easy fabrication, wide bandwidth, and considerable gain property.
