Abstract

ABSTRACT The scattering properties of microstrip patch antennas are examined with a spectral domain moment method approach. The Galerkin solution presented uses subdomain basis functions to model the current distribution on the patch so that a space varying surface resistance on the patch may be included. The subdomain approach is also used to model circular and triangular microstrip patches by approximating the patch boundary with a rectangular grid. Both calculated and measured results are presented for a few representative cases.
