Abstract
In this contribution we present an accurate modelling of the coupling between two patch array structures which act as transmitting and receiving antenna in a 24GHz near range sensor system. the EM analysis is performed by means of the efficient transmission line matrix-integral equation (TLM-IE) method which permits to model exact radiating boundary conditions. The calculated return-loss and mutual near field coupling between the antennas is investigated and compared to measured results.
