Abstract
In this paper a compact Circular Patch Ring Antenna Array (CPRAA) for UHF TV reception is presented. The proposed antenna consists of ring patches arranged in a 2 × 2 array and sits on the FR4 dielectric substrate. The patches are jointed with the Wilkinson power divider and fed by a BALUN. The results show that the antenna achieves a significantly high gain of 11.21 dB. The antenna resonates at the frequency of 638 MHz under UHF band with an operating bandwidth of 200 MHz. The proposed antenna is compact and cost effective and thus suitable for receiving TV broadcast channels and other applications under UHF frequency band.
