Abstract

AbstractThe method of fundamental solutions (MFS) is proposed for the analysis of microstrip patch antennas of arbitrary shape. The MFS consists mainly in approximating the solution of a problem by a linear combination of known fundamental solutions associated with source points located outside the domain. The implementation of the MFS is simple and computationally efficient. Simulation results are obtained for rectangular, circular and triangular microstrip patch antennas. The resonance frequency and input impedance results are in good agreement with those published in the literature. Two prototypes have been fabricated and tested. Good agreement has been obtained between the MFS simulations and the experimental results. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
