Abstract :
The input impedance of a probe-fed short-circuited microstrip antenna (SCMSA) is presented. The electric field expression under the microstrip patch by using the Wiener-Hopf technique is used and the electromotive force (EMF) method is applied. Analytical and experimental results for the impedance show the dependence on the dimensions and frequency
