Abstract :
Size reduction of printed antennas while maintaining or improving performance characteristics has been a prime research focus currently. Apart from analyzing superstrate configuration for a printed monopole, this paper studies a new stripline fed superstrate topology with double sided ground planes and its shape modification to reduce size, improve cross - polar levels and gain, and regulate resonances independently.
