Abstract :
The paper presents a theoretical investigation of post-loading techniques as applied to cavity-backed circular microstrip patch antennas. The effects of the number and location of shorting posts on the polarisation and operating frequency of the antenna are analysed, A number of practical designs using shorting-post loading are also presented
