Abstract :
An equivalent network for the strip-fed cavity-backed slot antenna is derived. The model is based on some physical insight into the problem. The various parameters of the network are derived from the experimental data on the input reflection parameter of the antenna. This model gives an insight into the strip-slot-cavity coupling and hence the working of the structure. It is also useful for predicting the performance of such practical antennas.
