Abstract
The physical bounds for antennas above a ground plane is analyzed in this paper. Optimal antenna G/Q ratio and Q factor are calculated using convex optimization from stored electric and magnetic energy matrices, obtained from a method of moments solver. Physical bounds for a patch antenna with different heights above a ground plane are investigated. Results are verified using commercially available electromagnetic solver FEKO.
