Title :
Analysis of slot loaded microstrip antenna using moment method
Author_Institution :
NASA Langley Res. Center, Hampton, VA, USA
Abstract :
The moment-method solution to the problem of a microstrip antenna loaded with a thin, inclined slot is presented. The generalized Thevenin and Norton theorems are used to represent the loaded patch by a two-port hybrid network. The exact electric and magnetic dyadic Green´s functions are used to determine the parameters of the equivalent network of the loaded patch. Numerical results are presented.<>
