Abstract

A miniaturised C-patch antenna excited by means of a coaxial probe is described. The antenna consists of two stacked C-shaped elements connected together with a vertical conducting plane. The antenna is designed on an air substrate and offers attractive dimensions, being five times lower than those of a conventional half wavelength microstrip patch antenna operating at the same frequency. A 10 dB bandwidth of 3% is obtained. The voltage standing wave ratio, radiation patterns, and electric surface current density are presented.
