Abstract :
The characteristics of a coupled slot resonator suitable for novel design of an integrated planar antenna are analyzed. The analysis is based on the spectral domain immittance matrix approach, and all the wave phenomena associated with the structure are incorporated. The resonant frequencies in the even and odd resonance modes are evaluated from the numerical solution of the characteristic equation, and the radiation patterns are calculated. The numerical results are compared with experimental data with good agreement
