Abstract :
The design of a compact single-feed single-layer microstrip antenna with dual-frequency and dual-polarisation operations is presented. By adjusting the length of the bar slot and the length of the patch sides, the antenna can achieve a desired ratio between the two resonant frequencies. Experimental results for a fabricated antenna are presented and discussed.
