microstip patch array antenna is basically ,thecollection of antenna that give the double directive gain
Micro strip antenna has following advantages : 1) Low profile : conformal (most important) 2) Easy to fabricate 3) Can be used in array 4) Easy to feed the most important use of micro strip is its conformity as it can be conformed to the air crafts, missiles, satellite. A stealth aircraft has about 50-70 micro-strip antennas. the most popular of conformal microstrip antennas are Cylindrical, conical as the are mounted on various parts of aircrafts, missiles etc. they have many use on armament department.
yes
A micro-strip antenna works on the principle of resonant cavity (short circuit walls on top and bottom, open circuit walls on the sides).A resonant cavity stores energy unlike transmission lines or wave guide which transmits electromagnetic energy from one part to another. A R.C is equivalent to LC device at low frequencies.
Binomial array is an array in which the amplitudes of the antenna elements in the array are arranged according to the coefficients of the binomial series... The need for a binomial array is i) In uniform linear array as the array length is increased to increase the directivity, the secondary lobes also occurs. ii) For certain applications, it is highly desirable that secondary lobes should be eliminated completely or reduced to minimum desirable level compared to main lobes.

end fire array A combination of identical and equally spaced antenna that radiate along the axis of the axis of the antenna array is known as an end fire array. the elements are fed with a current of equal magnitude but opposite in phase.due to this variation in phase ,the radiation obtained is unidirectional. broadside array when the maximum radiation of an array is directed normal to the axis of array it is known as broadside array. in a broadside array combination a number of identical antennas are set up along a line drawn perpendicular to their respective axis.
I think Printed Antenna ( array microstrip antenna)
The source of radiation for rectangular microstrip radiator is the electric field that is excited between the edges of microstrip element and the ground plane.The fields are excited 180 degree out of phase between opposite edges.Each edge therefore radiates an omnidirectional pattern into half space above the ground plane.The opposing edges are excited out of phase but their radiation adds in phase normal to the element. For more details see Antenna Engineering handbook by Johnson and Jasik. Thanks.

microstrip circuits can radiate
because patch antenna are used in order to achieve higher gain small dimensions, light weight, slim size and easy manufacturing as compared with parabolic dish or other antenna's

in received antenna: broadside means the direction of arrival is 90 degree or wave perpendicularly impinges the array. and endfire means the wave comes from the direction along the array axis.
