Abstract
This paper presents a wideband patch antenna fed by a modified L probe. The antenna has impedance bandwidth of 21% (SWR < 2) and cross polarization level of less than −15 dB across the operating bandwidth. The antenna has a gain of 8.5 dBi. Both simulated and experimental results are provided, and they are in good agreement. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this paper, the characteristics of a bent meander‐line probe fed patch antenna are investigated. The air‐filled patches are designed at a height of about 9% of the wavelength and the bent meander‐line probe fed antenna is able to achieve an impedance bandwidth of about 31% for a VSWR
A circularly polarized CP circular patch microstrip antenna with a cross slot using an L-shaped probe fed by a microstrip line is designed and measured. With the single L-probe, the impedance bandwidth, the axial-ratio bandwidth, and the gain bandwidth are 27, ( ) 3.47, and 26%, respecti¨ely, for th
