Abstract
The radiation characteristics of the first higher order mode of microstrip lines are investigated. As a result, a simple travelling wave antenna element is scribed, having a larger bandwidth compared with resonator antennas. A method to excite the first higher order mode is shown. A single antenna element is treated theoretically and experimentally, and an array of four antenna elements is demonstrated.
