In this paper, the 26 GHz band omnidirectional antenna that produces an isotropic radiation pattern in the azimuth plane and a directive radiation pattern in the elevation plane was designed by using reflector antennas. To investigate the reliability of the designed antenna, that was analyzed by using the aperture field method and the calculated value was compared with the measured value. An good agreement was achieved between the calculated characteristics and the experimental performance. We found that the designed antenna in this paper can be used as the omnidirectional antenna with reflectors and the analysis method in this paper can be used for the analysis of this type antenna.
