Abstract
CELLULAR base stations require a highly directive antenna with proper beam shaping and beam squinting in order to provide effective coverage of the cell area. An antenna system satisfying these requirements has been realized by applying the method of moments in conjunction with i mage theory to design an array of flat dipole elements placed above a ground plane. A fabricated collinearr array designed with this method provides operation across the 800-to-960-MHz bandwidth.
