Abstract

A microstrip antenna embedded inside a dielectric medium representing the building material is investigated for its gain. It is shown that coupling the embedded antenna to a parasitic patch, placed outside the embedding material, can increase the antenna gain significantly. In addition, by properly selecting the antenna depth inside the embedded material its radiation characteristics can be made less sensitive to the material parameters of the surrounding. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Because of their versatility and ease of fabrication, Uniplanar Compact-Photonic Band Gap (UC-PBG) structures have been recently applied to microstrip antenna design. However, when the PBG structure is embodied on the ground plane of a conventional microstrip antenna, the resulting configuration suf

## Abstract A novel microstrip slot antenna backed by a ground plane of large bandwidth and high gain is presented. A fan‐shaped termination of a microstrip feeder with a straight stub is used to excite a rectangular slot and a circular patch to realize the broadband characteristic. Its measured vo
