Abstract :
A novel slot-loaded equilateral-triangular microstrip antenna with dual frequency has been proposed and experimentally studied. The two operating frequencies of the proposed dual-frequency design have the same polarization planes and also have similar radiation characteristics. This design also shows a tunable range of about 1.16-2.06 for the frequency ratio of the two operating frequencies.
