A compact, wide bandwidth, wide beamwidth resonant microstrip meander line antenna element is reported for active phased array applications. The antenna element offers a return loss better than −10 dB over a bandwidth of 12% in S‐band with a beamwidth of 130° in E‐plane. The element has been tested in an array for its wide‐angle scan performance. Simulated and measured results are presented. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
