Abstract
A stacked microstrip antenna with two parasitic elements, one of which increases the impedance bandwidth and the other which enhances the gain, has been investigated experimentally. The effects of each parasitic element have been clarified as well as the characteristics of the stacked three-element antenna and the design procedure for the stacked microstrip antenna have been described
