Abstract

In this paper, a new CAD model is proposed to calculate accurate resonant frequencies of inverted microstrip circular patch antennas having a wide range of parameters. This model incorporates all the effects of various dimensions and dielectrics used. Computed results for the first few modes are compared with some new measurements. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
