Analysis of superstrate loaded cylindrical-rectangular microstrip antennas using the electric surface current method

This paper uses the electric surface current method to determine the radiation pattern and input impedance of cylindrical-rectangular microstrip antennas with a superstrate. The fields are solved taking into account both dielectric layers and the metallic cylinder through the proper Green's fun...

Description
Summary:This paper uses the electric surface current method to determine the radiation pattern and input impedance of cylindrical-rectangular microstrip antennas with a superstrate. The fields are solved taking into account both dielectric layers and the metallic cylinder through the proper Green's function. It also discusses the effects of varying the thickness and dielectric permittivity of the superstrate.
