Abstract
This paper summarizes an effort to obtain a wideband aperture-coupled fragmented microstrip antenna. The antenna is modeled as a 2.5D structure, and is optimized using a genetic algorithm (GA). The realistic physical feed, a microstrip-fed slot, is also included in the optimization process.
