Abstract
A new technique for feeding printed antennas is described. A microstrip antenna on one substrate is coupled to a microstripline feed on another parallel substrate through an aperture in the ground plane which separates the two substrates. A simple theory explaining the coupling mechanism is presented, as well as measurements of a prototype aperture-fed antenna.
