Popis: We present a linearly polarized ultrawideband design for millimeter-wave phased array antennas over 17–42 GHz. The design comprises tightly coupled dipoles, integrated with a specific feeding mechanism. The proposed antenna provides a relative bandwidth of 2.7:1 and 2.47:1 with VSWR $8\times 4$ arrays are fabricated using standard PCB technology. The measurement results of the array prototypes show a good agreement with the simulations in terms of VSWR, radiation pattern, and realized gain.
