Gridded circular patch antennas

Clasen, G., Langley, Richard J. (1999) Gridded circular patch antennas. Microwave and Optical Technology Letters, 21 (5). pp. 311-313. ISSN 0895-2477. (doi:10.1002/(SICI)1098-2760(19990605)21:5%3C311::AID-MOP1%3E3.0.CO;2-3) (KAR id:17223)

Abstract

The performance of circular microstrip patch antennas is presented where the conducting patch and ground plane are constructed from a grid. Improved cross polarization, mode suppression, and band-width are possible, but are accompanied by lower gain and reduced front-to-back ratios. A computer simulation reveals the current structure. The density and shape of the grid pattern are important parameters. Such antennas are can be manufactured within glass laminates. (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
