Abstract :
The cavity backed inverted microstrip patch (IMP) is of significant importance for integrated antenna design. The effect of the cavity enclosure in changing its resonances is examined theoretically and experimentally. A simple CAD model is proposed to calculate accurate resonant frequencies of the cavity-backed IMCPs and is also verified with different experimental results.
