A large square array of thin dipoles has a well-behaved scan resistance over a wide bandwidth. Such an array requires reactance matching with frequency, but not with scan angles. The scan element pattern (SEP) shows only small changes over a 5:1 bandwidth, However, a dipole/screen array is suitable for wide-band scan only in the H-plane.
