Abstract
This letter presents a slotβcoupled microstrip patch antenna with harmonics suppression capability within an enhanced bandwidth. Measured return loss result at the operating frequency, second harmonic frequency, and third harmonic frequency were 22.2 dB, 1.77 dB, and 1.93 dB, respectively, with a 9% impedance bandwidth around 2.45 GHz. The antenna is a good candidate for further integration with classβF amplifiers. Β© 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract A novel technique for the bandwidth enhancement of conventional rectangular microstrip antenna is proposed in this paper. When a high permittivity dielectric resonator of suitable resonant frequency was loaded over the patch, the % bandwidth of the antenna was increased by more than fiv
