Abstract :
A wideband patch antenna composed of two triangular patches is investigated using an EM simulation program. The antenna bandwidth is twice as large as that of an ordinary rectangular patch of the same size. Numerical results also shown that good radiation patterns are obtained with the cross-polarization level of -14 dB in the whole frequency range.<>
