Design of reconfigurable stacked patch microstrip antenna / Kartini Abdullah

This paper presents a Reconfigurable Stacked Patch Microstrip Antenna (RSPMA). The antenna uses a combination of aperture coupled technique and stacked patch technology for reducing feigned radiation patterns. This RSPMA consists of three FR-4 substrate layers with 4.7 mm thickness each and 3mm thic...
