This work demonstrates use of meander formed RX dipoles to improve the receive capability of an array consisting of TX/RX bow tie dipole antennas.For this purpose numerical field simulations and phantom experiments are performed to characterize the transmit behavior of the array and to measure the SNR of the proposed array.
