Abstract :
It is shown that the fields produced by the electric surface currents on the conducting patch of a microstrip antenna are equivalent to those produced by a magnetic surface current sheet bounding the patch in the substrate only when dyadic Green´s functions for the two-layer stratified medium are used.
