  • Abstract
    In this paper, the three-element stacked microstrip antenna which is composed of a fed element and two parasitic elements is proposed. It has a wide bandwidth and a high gain. The stacked microstrip antenna is precisely analyzed using the FDTD method, in order to investigate the characteristics and the behavior mechanism of the stacked antenna.
