Abstract
AbstractA set of closed‐form expressions based on cavity model and equivalent resonant circuits are proposed to compute accurately the resonant frequency, input impedance, bandwidth, and gain of an equilateral triangular patch antenna (ETMPA) with and without suspended substrates. The computed values for wide range of antenna parameters and feed locations of an ETMPA without suspended substrates are compared with different experimental and theoretical values available in open literature. The present model shows very close agreement with experiments. The experimental and theoretical values of input impedance, bandwidth, and gain of an ETMPA on suspended substrate are not available. So, we have employed a commercial simulator (HFSS) to validate the present model with suspended substrate. The present model is very fast, simple, and more close to the experiments compared to other theoretical models and full wave analysis. This model is very useful for designing the MIC on semiconductor materials with εr ≥ 10. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
