Abstract :
A novel small microstrip patch antenna is presented. The probe-fed circular microstrip patch incorporates a single shorting post which significantly reduces the overall size of the antenna. Experimental and theoretical impedance behaviour and radiation characteristics of the modified patch are given. Very good agreement between experiment and theory was achieved
