Abstract :
The four-element stacked patch antenna array on conducting cylinder is reported. Multilayered dielectric structure is analyzed using the equivalent transmission line model for two coupled lines with E and H waves. The problem of the patch antenna design with expanded bandwidth is solved. Radiation patterns and VSWR variation are shown.
