Abstract :
This paper describes FD-TD (finite difference-time domain) modelling of a dual band multi-layered microstrip patch antenna operating at 35 GHz on an in-house fabricated semi-insulated GaAs substrate. The simulated and measured resonant frequencies at both lower and upper resonant frequencies are compared to check the accuracy of the different EM modelling techniques
