Paper Title
Network Analysis Of Antenna Based On Scattering Parameters

Abstract
Antenna design involves many electrical and mechanical parameters. The most important electrical parameters include radiation patterns, gain, directivity, input impedance, bandwidth, and efficiency. This paper develops a new form of two port network analysis of an antenna system based on scattering parameters (S-parameters) of an antenna element and its radiation pattern. In this formulation, antenna radiation is considered in terms of electromagnetic coupling between the test antenna and a probe antenna. Keywords: Antenna parameters, Scattering parameter, Test antenna, Probe antenna.
