description | This paper presents a novel implementation of an electromagnetically coupled
patch antenna using air gap filled substrates to achieve the maximum bandwidth. We also
propose an efficient modeling technique using the FDTD method which can substantially
reduce the simulation cost for modeling the structure. The simulated results have been
compared with measurement to show the broadband behavior of the antenna and the
accuracy of the proposed modeling technique. The measured results show a 16% of
VSWR<2 bandwidth which is considerable considering the inherent bandwidth limitations
in microstrip antenna technology. |
