Abstract :
The fundamental problem of printed antennas is addressed. The printed or microstrip dipole is considered, and its radiation characteristics are investigated. The Green´s function to the problem is obtained in dyadic form by solving the problem of a Hertzian dipole printed on a grounded substrate. Input impedance computations are presented, and the numerical solution for the Sommerfeld integrals is discussed.
