## Abstract This paper investigates the characteristics of conformal microstrip patch antennas using the rigorous FDTD approach based on a rectangular mesh and a staircase discretization scheme for the curved regions. It is shown that the conformal shape of microstrip patch antennas can be used as

β¦ Synopsis
Abstract
Triangular patch modeling is used for analysis of arbitrarily shaped microstrip patch antennas over a single lossy dielectric medium. Since the Sommerfeld formulation is used, both the single dielectric layer (over which the microstrip patch is located) and the ground plane are considered to be infinitely wide. Typical numerical results are presented for rectangular, circular, semicircular, pentagonal, and triangular patch antennas. Β© 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

## Abstract Impedanceβbandwidth enhancement of microstrip antennas using an Lβshaped probe feed has previously been demonstrated. In this paper, axialβratio bandwidth enhancement is achieved for circularly polarized (CP) microstrip patch antenna using dual and four Lβshaped probe feeds. By controll

The gain of the active array is higher than the gain of passive array by approximately the gain of a simple amplifier. Using the measurement data, the EIRP and effective power were deter
## Abstract In this paper, microstrip patch arrays with both uniform phase and tapered distributions are analyzed __via__ the finiteβdifference timeβdomain (FDTD) technique. The phase delay in the frequency domain is converted into a delay in the time domain when exciting the array. The far field p
We present results of a recent investigation into a wide-band and high gain ( ) patch microstrip antenna using the finite-difference time-domain FDTD method. The substrate-superstrate resonance technique was used to increase the antenna element gain. An aperture-coupled rectangular patch microstrip
