Abstract :
A simple transmission line feed model is presented for microstrip antennas in a two-sided structure coupling through a coaxial probe. The parameters of the model are extracted directly from the feed structure. The validity of the feed model combined with the recently developed transmission line model of microstrip antennas is verified by measurement.
