- Additional information
- Long-range Wi-Fi links are challenging, as they need high gain antennas with sufficient bandwidth to cover the entire frequency band. This work is the first presentation of a microstrip-grid array antenna that extends range to 5km and which has been deployed in an experimental large scale wireless sensor network, in the island of Crete (Greece), which manages the drinking water reservoirs in urban areas (SYN11-6-925 AquaNet project).
