Abstract :
A novel stacked shorted patch antenna is proposed and investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The new antenna has significantly greater bandwidth than a conventional shorted patch and its behaviour is less susceptible to manufacturing errors. The stacked shorted patch is small in size and, thus, is suitable for mobile communication applications
