Abstract :
The coplanar patch antenna is a recent addition to the range of planar radiators. This paper presents some results for this type of antenna. It has good front to back ratio (15 dB) and low cross polarisation (-20 dB) performances and these have been achieved by exploiting the lens like effects of the high dielectric constant substrate.
