Spectral Domain Analysis of Microstrip Patch Antennas

06 June 1988

The conventional leaky cavity and transmission line models currently used to analyze microstrip patch antennas, although physically appealing and simple, do not explain the radiation mechanisms of the antenna well. This presentation reappraises the current models and techniques of microstrip antenna analysis in view of this deficiency and develops an alternative approach to determine the radiation.
