Abstract :
This paper presents the design and experimental validation of an original single layer planar wideband microstrip antenna for C-band airborne applications. This antenna printed on a 787µm-thick substrate exhibits wideband performance and inclined radiation patterns. The measured results are in good agreement with the simulated ones in terms of bandwidth (more than 15% impedance bandwidth at 7.1GHz) and radiation pattern requirements.
