This design series of videos are on the design and modeling of micro strip antenna array feed network. This feed network involves designing a number of T-Junction dividers, or Wilkinson divider. The divisions are either equal power to all elements, that would imply a uniform illumination of the antenna elements, or tapered un-equal power ratios that implement Taylor or Chebyshev weights to the input signal of every element in the array.

We use Pathwave ADS from Keysight to design T-junctions that implement power distribution among the array elements.
