Abstract:
A crossed slot fed microstrip antenna (100). The antenna (100) includes a conducting ground plane (125), which has at least one crossed slot (125), and at least two feed lines (105). The feed lines (105) have respective stub regions (115) that extend beyond the crossed slot (125) and transfer signal energy to or from the crossed slot (125). The antenna (100) also includes a first substrate (150) disposed between the ground plane (120) and the feed lines (105). The first substrate (150) includes a first region and at least a second region, the regions having different substrate properties. The first region is proximate to at least one of the feed lines (105).
Abstract:
A slot fed microstrip antenna (100) having an improved stub (118) provides enhanced efficiency through more efficient coupling of electromagnetic energy between the feed line (117) and the slot (106). A dielectric layer (105) disposed between the feed line (117) and the ground plane (108) provides a first region (112) having a first relative permittivity and at least a second region (113) having a second relative permittivity. The second relative permittivity is higher as compared to the first relative permittivity. The stub (118) is disposed on the high permittivity region (113). The dielectric layer can include magnetic particles, which are preferably disposed underlying the stub.
Abstract:
A slot fed microstrip patch antenna (300) includes a conducting ground plane (308), the conducting ground plane (308) including at least one slot (306). A dielectric material is disposed between the ground plane (308) and at least one feed line (317), wherein at least a portion of the dielectric layer (313) includes magnetic particles (324). The dielectric layer between the feed line (317) and the ground plane (308) provides regions having high relative permittivity (313) and low relative permittivity (312). At least a portion of the stub (318) is disposed on the high relative permittivity region (313).
