Computational Study of Transmitting Phased Array Antennas for WPT Demonstration Satellite Experiment

The purpose of this study is investigation of transmitting phased array antennas for a future wireless power transfer (WPT) demonstration satellite experiment. A sequential array was used to construct an array antenna to improve the overall axial ratio of the transmitting array antenna. We evaluate the characteristics based on simulations for three types of arrays. We conduct experiments using the model determined in the simulations to validate the reliability of the simulations.
