β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, we introduce a novel feeding technique for bandwidth enhancement of a rectangular microstrip antenna. This antenna offers an impedance bandwidth of 22% without degrading the efficiency. The effect of the feed parameters upon patch characteristics such as resonant frequency, impedance bandwidth, and radiation pattern Figure 7 Simulation results using HFSS are studied in detail. The experimental results are verified using the FDTD results.

## Abstract Bandwidth enhancement of a rectangular microstrip antenna using a Tβshaped microstrip feed is explored in this paper. A 2:1 VSWR impedance bandwidth of 23% is achieved by employing this technique. The farβfield patterns are stable across the pass band. The proposed antenna can be used c
## Abstract A novel slot antenna of large bandwidth and small size, which is fed by a fanβshaped microstrip feed with a straight stub, is introduced. The effect of the fan feed on the impedance characteristics is investigated theoretically and experimentally. Good agreement between the theoretical
A new antenna structure comprising of multiple radiating microstrip patches, representing a figure of digit eight, proximity fed by a microstrip line is proposed. On a double-layered substrate of FR4, this antenna achieves multiband functionality in the range of 3.81-12.42 GHz, which covers IEEE 802
## Abstract A wideband microstrip patch antenna with tilted Lβprobe is proposed and studied. Given a tilted Lβshaped probe and substrate height of about 16.8% of the wavelength, a bandwidth of 37.1% is obtained in the design, and the inβband __S__~11~ parameter is improved. The radiation pattern is
## Abstract This letter presents a new highβgain microstrip structure with three rectangular patches on bottom layer and one patch on the top layer. A parametric study is presented on the effect of the parasitic patch and using an air gap between the feed patch and the ground plane. The measurement
