Resum
This paper presents a new array antenna of printed dipoles for beamforming which avoids severely negative influence of nearby metal planes. This is made to be possible by placing a thin artificial magnetic conductor(AMC) beneath each of the printed dipole elements which are excited by a Butler matrix feed-network. The multiple beams of the AMC-backed dipole array and antenna characteristics are investigated in the vicinity of a wide metallic plane. It shows that the beams do not disappear with low vulnerability to the harsh environment.
