Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce a novel feeding technique for
bandwidth enhancement of a rectangular microstrip antenna This antenna
offers an impedance bandwidth of 22% without degrading the effciencv.
The effect of the feed parameters upon patch characteristics
such as resonant frequency, impedance bandwidth, and radiation pattern are studied in detail. The experimental results are verified using the
FDTD results
