Radiation pattern of single patch, E-plane looks unusual.
It can be directly pasted to freeware program called SpeqMath.
(http://www.speqmath.com/)
Here is radiation patterns for E and H planes:
As you can see E-plane red curve looks not right (as i think).
I searched for some radiation pattern images in internet and found out that E-plane and H-plane pattern does not differ so much as on my image. Also i checked formulas many times and all seems to be ok. What's wrong here with red curve?
-3dB patch beamwidth for H-plane looks normal (86deg pattern), while E-plane never reaches -3dB, so beamwidth is 180deg! In real antennas i saw parameters around 90 deg for both planes of single patch antenna. I need to know this parameter more precisely.
Both, E-plane and H-plane patterns of patch antenna should be broad.
I don't know what is wrong in the calculation, but this tinny Matlab clone (SpeqMath) looks impressive for how many things can do for a computer program that has only 130 kb !
Today programmers use many Mb's of resources just for simple arithmetic calculations.
Thank for posting. On your image E-plane looks nice, there is -3dB at about +-45deg, so -3dB beamwidth is 90deg. When i use formula it is never gets lower than -2dB. Formula is almost the same everywhere (books, papers). But also I convert to dB using 20*Log10. For example, when i calculate array factor (AF), beamwidth and side beams looks perfect (at -3dB level). But when i come to single element pattern, it is a little strange. I multiply AF by E-plane pattern, but as it is a little wrong, side beams too big, or i get 180deg beamwidth for single patch. I am going to found some paper with results on E-plane and calculate it using this formula to check the difference..
