The study of Microstrip patch antennas have made great progress in recent years. Compared with conventional antennas, Microstrip patch antennas have more advantages and better prospects. They are lighter in weight, low volume, low cost, low profile, smaller in dimension and ease of fabrication and conformity. Moreover, the Microstrip patch antennas can provide dual and circular polarizations, d...

Based on microstrip antenna technology, a compact single-layer circular aperture array is proposed in this paper. The method suitable for designing large-scale and high-efficiency patch Ka band. By using the high-impedance characteristic of coupled line, novel multi-stage feeding network that can realize large power division ratio proposed, its structure center-symmetrical fed through coaxial p...

In this contribution, an inverse-class-F (F -1 ) power amplifier at 1.7 GHz using GaN device is proposed and experimentally tested. The novelty in the design is the use of a three-layers rectangular slot resonators in microstrip line’s ground plane as harmonic filter. In particular, a planar periodic structure composed by two different slot resonators is used to control 2 nd , 3 rd harmonics an...

Antenna is a means for radiating or receiving or transmitting energy an antenna is used in an advanced wireless system is usually required to optimize the radiation energy in same direction and suppress it in others. A microstrip patch antenna, also referred to as patch antenna is a narrowband, widebeam antenna fabricated by etching the antenna element patch in metal trace bonded to an insulati...

A low cost 4  4 butler matrix fed antenna array has been proposed for Ku band applications. At high frequencies, the ohmic and dielectric losses are high and also the undesired feed radiation is more in the case of microstrip line feed, therefore substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) has been used to feed the antenna elements. The implementation of SIW technology improved the radiation performa...

The transmission line model for the single and coupled microstrip line components implemented in APLAC are presented. A detailed description of the algorithm used to calculate the characteristic impedance and the effective permittivity is given for the single microstrip, the symmetrical and asymmetrical pair of coupled microstrip lines, and the n symmetrical coupled microstrip lines. The effect...
