Abstract :
The input impedance and return loss versus frequency for probe-fed cylindrical microstrip antennas with complex shape patches have been presented. It has been shown that the antenna bandwidth can be extended due to the complex shape patches. The numerical results are in a good agreement with those obtained by other methods.
