Approximate Model For Microstrip Fed Slot Antennas

Integrated antennas such as microstrip and slot antennas are advantageous as they are typically small in size, can be easily integrated with electronic circuitry and have low cost 3. Printed slot antennas are unique relative to microstrip antennas as they generally provide wider bandwidth. A Dual Band Microstrip-Fed Slot Antenna Abstract: A simple new design method to achieve a dual band microstrip-fed slot antenna is presented. It is shown that when two slot antennas are placed in series, the spacing between the two antennas can be adjusted to achieve an effective secondary resonance. 3.4.1 Transmission Line Model This model represents the microstrip antenna by two slots of width W and height h, separated by a transmission line of length L. The microstrip is essentially a nonhomogeneous line of two dielectrics, typically the substrate and air. Figure 3.7 Microstrip Line Figure 3.8 Electric Field Lines.

Double-slot-fed microstrip antennas for circular polarization operation

Abstract

Using the cavity model theory, simple design formulas are developed for double-slot-fed circularly polarized microstrip antennas. Equivalent magnetic current sources are assumed at the slot positions and then the electric field distribution under the patch is obtained in terms of cavity modes. By applying the circular polarization conditions to the far-field components of the electric field, the loci of the positions of the slots for the circular polarization operations are found. Experimental results are successfully demonstrated based on the theoretical designs.
