Abstract

In this paper, a novel microstrip array antenna to achieve some specific contoured beam is presented. The proposed antenna produces three directional main beams which is a consequence of its particular layout. The antenna is suggested to be mounted on High Altitude Platforms (HAPs) to provide the desirable coverage (e.g. three separated islands). Using developed software, enables us to obtain the footprint of antenna on the ground. Furthermore, a study on channel capacity enhancement, employing the proposed antenna is carried out which clarify the profit of using this contoured beam antenna.
