Abstract

A microstrip antenna consists of a sandwich of two parallel conducting layers separated by a single dielectric substrate. The patch conductors are normally of copper and gold. The lower conductors function as a ground plane and the upper conductors may be a simple patch of any desired shape. The dielectric constant of the substrate should be low in order to enhance the fringing fields which are responsible for most of the radiations from the patch. The shapes of the patch are rectangular, triangular, square, circular, elliptical, hexagonal etc.
