Abstract
This letter presents a new high‐gain microstrip structure with three rectangular patches on bottom layer and one patch on the top layer. A parametric study is presented on the effect of the parasitic patch and using an air gap between the feed patch and the ground plane. The measurement results show that the impedance bandwidth of the antenna is 62% centered at 14.5 GHz, and the measured gain of the antenna is more than 8 dB over most of the bandwidth. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A probe-fed microstrip patch antenna in a ¨ery high permitti¨ity substrate᎐superstrate configuration has been experimentally in¨estigated at 1.8 GHz. The microstrip patch is much smaller and has about the same gain as a con¨entional microstrip patch.
This article presents a new wideband slot antenna for wireless applications at 5.8 GHz. To improve the antenna bandwidth, a new feeding mechanism based on a capacitively-and inductively-coupled slot is proposed. To demonstrate this approach, an experimental antenna prototype operating at the 5.8-GHz
## Abstract A meandering probe‐fed circularly polarized stacked patch antenna with truncated corners is studied. The antenna has a wide 3‐dB axial ratio bandwidth of 12%. It exhibits a stable radiation pattern across the axial ratio bandwidth. The antenna has low cross polarization and high gain, w
## Abstract This article presents a novel broadband E‐shape radiation pattern reconfiguratable microstrip antenna. The MEMS switches are used to turn the two operations, a basis mode E‐shape microstrip antenna and a high‐order mode E‐shape microstrip antenna. It is important to make wide‐beam and h
## Abstract In this paper, the regular microstrip dipole antenna shape is modified by adding upper and lower triangular patches, which makes it look like a rhombus. The rhombus shape is chosen because of its wideband characteristics over the rectangular one. The presented antenna provides a wide ba
