Abstract
A new design of a U-slot microstrip antenna with an E shaped stacked patch is presented that achieves an impedance bandwidth of 59.7%. Parameters such as substrate thickness, slot length, width are investigated and design results from parametric simulations are presented. The electric current distributions on the patch and the radiation patterns are also demonstrated in this paper.
