  • Abstract
    This paper investigates the differentially fed circular microstrip antenna in inverted configuration. Compared to single fed microstrip antennas, the differentially fed configuration offers wider impedence bandwidth, symmetric copolarized radiation and lower cross-polarized radiation. Moreover, the inverted configuration of the differentially fed design exhibits wider gain than conventional differentially fed design. Simulation results for different configurations are compared and presented in this paper.
