## Abstract This paper presents two novel pattern reconfigurable microstrip antennas, which are formed by second‐ and third‐order fractal Hilbert curves, respectively. Both of the antennas have the feature of linearly polarized reconfigurable radiation patterns. By controlling switches on/off, the

## Abstract A wideband microstrip antenna using a coplanar capacitive feed with nearly 50% impedance bandwidth has been realized on a stacked air‐dielectric substrate with only one metal layer above the ground plane. In this article an approach of modifying the patch shape is proposed to obtain sym
## Abstract A microstrip leaky‐wave antenna (MLWA) with parasitic elements is presented in this letter. The short MLWA is the basic element, and two microstrip patches with a short‐circuit edge worked as the parasitic elements. The main lobe scans from 66° to 42° when operating frequency increases
## Abstract A novel structure of tapered slotline antenna is presented. Using “palm tree” shaped metallization cross‐polarization levels are improved. Also their influence on radiation pattern is considered. Matching performance is at least as good as a simple exponential tapered slotline (Vivaldi)

Formulas based on the two-slot, the ca¨ity, and the surface current models to compute the far-field radiation patterns in both the E and H planes for rectangular microstrip antenna elements are studied and their ¨alidity assessed. Three closed-form formulas are presented for the calculation of the r
