Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main"> <title>ABSTRACT</title> <p>A reflector antenna with rounded shape is designed to collimate beam radiated by a quarter wave antenna operating at 2.4 GHz by implementing low cost plasma elements. The measured gain is 9 dBi, cross‐polarization remains below −10 dB and operating bandwidth of the antenna is almost 46 percent. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
