Abstract :
In this paper, the design, modeling, and experimental validation of the model of a proximity coupled or electromagnetically coupled (EMC) linearly polarized patch antenna are presented. Guidelines for developing a simple model, and design of the EMC patch antennas are outlined. This work can be used for modeling and accurate design of the proximity coupled patch antenna without resorting to time consuming experimental optimization approach. The model presented in this paper predicts the resonant frequency of the antenna accurately
