A microstrip array with mutual coupled rectangular patch radiators is described. By the avoidance of a corporate feeding network, advantages in the antenna performance and design are realisable. Experimental results are presented for both linearly and circularly polarised antennas which demonstrate the usefulness of this special antenna configuration.
