Abstract :
A new technique for bandwidth enhancement of microstrip-fed annular ring slot antennas is presented. Using this technique, a wideband antenna is designed that has consistent radiation parameters across the entire band and has a bandwidth that is six times larger than that of an ordinary ring antenna.
