description: A guide to broadband microstrip antennas, offering information to help you choose and design the optimum broadband microstrip antenna configurations for your applications, without sacrificing other antenna parameters. The text shows you how to take advantage of the light-weight, low volume benefits of these antennas, by providing explanations of the various configurations and simple design equations that help you analyze and design microstrip antennas with speed and confidence. This practical resource presents an understanding of the radiation mechanism and characteristics of microstrip antennas, and provides guidance on designing new types of planar monopole antennas with multi-octave bandwidth. The authors explore how to select and design proper broadband microstrip antenna configurations for compact, tunable, dual-band and circular polarization applications. Moreover, the work compares all the broadband techniques and suggests the most attractive configuration.
