In this paper, a printed 1×8 array antenna operating at 2.4 GHz is proposed for radio frequency identification (RFID) Reader. The proposed array antenna is composed of eight identical modified patch elements. The radiating elements are fed in parallel via a simple 50 Ohm microstrip line matched with a quarter-wave impedance transformer using a T magic power divider to divide the input power into two equal quantities with the same phase. The suggested array configuration is designed using Rogers RT/duroid 5880 substrate having dielectric constant εr = 2.2, dielectric loss tangent = 0.0009, and substrate’s height of 1.56mm. The overall dimension of the 1×8 array antenna is 117×475mm2. The proposed array antenna shows good impedance matching, high gain and directional radiation patterns. The proposed array antenna has a high gain about of 14.61dBi, high radiation efficiency of 98.3%, and a good reflection coefficient S11 of -13.14dB and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 1.56 at 2.4 GHz.
