Abstract :
This paper proposes a design for a microstrip patch antenna with dual resonance and dual polarization fed by proximity coupled quarter wavelength stub. The antenna characteristics are analyzed by the FDTD method with Mur´s 2nd order ABC. From the simulation results based on the FDTD method, the frequency characteristics of structure parameters such as the patch size and the offset feed are investigated. The numerical results are compared with the experimental results, and the comparison shows reasonable agreement for a design frequency
