of 3 = 3 elements was fabricated and tested. The stability of the quasi-optical amplifier array was demonstrated. The gain of the active array is higher than the gain of passive array by approximately the gain of a simple amplifier. Using the measurement data, the EIRP and effective power were deter

โฆ Synopsis
In this article we analyze the effect of the disk loading on the characteristics of a spherical annular-ring microstrip antenna. The antenna is excited by a coaxial probe. The theoretical treatment is based on a full-wave analysis and a moment-method calculation. Numerical results of the resonant frequency, input impedance, voltage standing-wave ratio (VSWR), and radiation characteristics are presented. It is shown that the impedance bandwidth of the spherical annular-ring microstrip antenna can be broadened by adding a parasitic disk patch. Compared to the single annular-ring patch case, the spherical annular-ring microstrip antenna with a parasitic disk patch has larger minor lobes and larger cross-polarization radiation.
