In this paper, design of a linear planar dipole antenna array with cosecant square pattern at 1088MHz, wide band, and low sidelobe level is presented. In order to achieve a desired shaped-beam, a planar dipole has designed as an array element for wide bandwidth with return loss less than -15dB. Then...
