Abstract
Experimental results of a dual-frequency microstrip antenna consisting of two stacked annular rings of outer radii 5 cm and inner radii 2.5 cm are presented. Fabricated on a Duroid substrate with relative permittivity 2.32 and thickness 0.159 cm, the separations of the two resonant frequencies range from 6.30-9.36 percent for the first three modes. The frequency separations can be altered by means of an adjustable air gap between the lower ring and the upper substrate.
