Abstract

A high‐gain wideband low‐profile microstrip patch antenna array is designed and tested. A method for enhancing the impedance bandwidth through the combination of a driven rectangular patch with parasitic elements is proposed. The array, which has 16 elements in a 4 × 4 arrangement, is pasted on a 2‐mm dielectric substrate. The impedance bandwidth and the gain of the array is 12% (for SWR ≤ 2) centered at 4.5 GHz and 20 dBi, respectively. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract When trying to increase the bandwidth of antennas based on high‐impedance surfaces, the radiation pattern tends to split near the resonance frequency of the artificial perfect magnetic conductor (PMC). This problem is solved here by reducing the size of the PMC in the E‐plane and by mak

Two wideband tapered slot antennas are designed, fabricated, and tested. The first antenna, which is fabricated on a high dielectric constant substrate (e r 5 10.2), shows a measured return loss of better than 10 dB from 1.6 to 12.4 GHz (7.7:1 bandwidth), and an antenna gain varying from 3.6 to 7.8

## Abstract The performance of a V‐slotted microstrip patch antenna, with and without additional edge slots, is investigated. It is shown that the V‐slotted patch is broadband, but its cross polarization increases with frequency. Placing two additional rectangular slots at the patch edges, parallel
