Abstract :
We present a dual feed aperture coupled patch antenna for microsatellites at X band. For integration with other active circuits, GaAs is used as the feeding substrate. The input impedance and radiation pattern are given for the designed patch antenna. It is shown that by properly choosing patch parameters, high performance can be obtained with simple configuration
