The proposed array antenna is constructed by 2 × 2 elements of circular waveguide antenna in asymmetric configuration and fed through microstrip line networks. In order to properly work at the frequency of 1800MHz available for harvesting the Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) energy, each circular waveguide antenna is designed to have the height of 40mm and the radius of 68mm. Parametric studies based on simulation are performed to acquire optimum design of the configuration as well as the feeding network. The experimental characterization shows that the prototype of realized array antenna which takes the total dimension of 350mm×350mm achieved reflection coefficient (S11) value of-30.32dB at the frequency of 1840MHz suitable for the desired application.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Asymmetric configurations,Experimental characterization,Feeding networks,Global system for mobile communications (GSM),Optimum designs,Parametric study,Transverse magnetic modes,Waveguide array[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Array antenna,circular waveguide,energy harvesting,Global System for Mobile communication (GSM),Transverse Magnetic (TM) mode[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]This work is partially supported by the National Innovation System Research Incentive (InSINas) Program, contract No.: 68/INS-1/PPK/E4/2020, from the Ministry of Research and Technology/National Research and Innovation Agency, the Republic of Indonesia, FY2020.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1109/ICRAMET51080.2020.9298605[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
