Abstract :
Rectangular patch antennas are modeled using arbitrarily oriented biaxially anisotropic substrates. The Method of Moments is used to compute induced currents and the results are used to calculate input impedance, resonant length, impedance bandwidth and radiation patterns. We show that the biaxial anisotropy and orientation of the medium affect performance metrics.
