Abstract :
In this paper a survey of the gap-coupled microstrip antennas is presented. The need and types of gap-coupled microstrip antennas with recent research overview is discussed. By using the concept of gap-coupling the bandwidth of microstrip antenna can be increased. In this one patch is fed and the parasitic patch is excited by the gap-coupling. The concept of increasing the bandwidth by gap-coupling is also discussed.
