Abstract :
An impedance matching technique for asymmetrical folded-slot antennas (FSAs) was introduced. Design of Experiment (DOE) techniques are used for improving the robustness of designs. The effects of the design parameters on the FSA frequency response are characterized through DOE techniques.
