| Abstract | I. Introduction Focused of energy or organized efforts is inevitable for any breakthrough success. This outspoken feature when implemented for electromagnetic energy with the help of Phased Array Antennas results in well known and useful phenomenon of Beamforming [1]. Phased array antennas are useful in (active or passive phased array) radar application [2]. They are also worthy in wireless Satellite Communication [3]. Advanced weather, air traffic control and security applications also utilizes active Phased array antenna. A study regarding challenges in these areas has been carried out in [4]. In single element antenna, the radiation pattern is usually very broad and the directivity is relatively low. This problem can be overcomed by enlarging the size of the element thus increasing the directivity. Another way to enlarge the antenna without changing the size of the individual elements is to assemble the radiating elements in a geometrical configuration known as array. The individual elements forming the array are usually identical and they can be of any form [5]. Section 1 contains different types of Antenna arrays like linear array, Planar array and Scanned array. Section 2 highlights on Design Methodology of an antenna array , steps of designing microstrip antenna array and different types feeding techniques used to feed an antenna. Section 3 elaborates about Active Phased Array. In section 4 , we talked about Array Design Procedure like Coaxial feedline, Series fed taper antenna array design and corporate feed antenna array. |
