Abstract :
The permeability variation of a ferrite substrate with an axial DC magnetic bias field along with the RF excitation of a microstrip antenna leads to multiresonant behavior. A study of tuning the patch antenna on a ferrite substrate to exploit this feature is reported, along with the associated theoretical analysis and experimental findings
