Abstract: This paper addresses the use of dual-polarized power-combining microstrip antennas to realize an efficient LINC (LInear amplification using Non-linear Components) phased-array. A small antenna array consisting of two LINC antenna elements has been designed and experimentally validated. We have realized an EVM (Error Vector Magnitude) below 0.3% for a scan range up to ±45°.
