Abstract :
The integral equations technique solved by the moment method combined with the use of the simple transmission line theory is shown to be very efficient for calculating the input impedance for a microstrip-fed printed slot dipole. The theory is based on the combination of the exact Green´s functions for open planar structures. It is shown that the symmetry of the radiating dipole with respect to the feeding line results in the maximum dipole bandwidth.<>
