  • Abstract
    This paper describes a cavity-backed patch-antenna geometry, which features multiple dielectric layers and shorting posts. These features are exploited to design antennas which retain many of the desirable characteristics of conventional microstrip antennas, yet overcome some of their inherent disadvantages
