  • Abstract
    An investigation into the novel dielectric loading technique for reducing the size of low profile microstrip antennas is presented. Inserting or loading discrete dielectrics into the air substrate of a microstrip patch antenna can considerably reduce the antenna size while at the same time achieve good bandwidth and excellent axial ratio performance. Experimental and simulated results at L-band frequencies demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach
