  • Abstract
    A prototype of Air Gap RLSA has been designed and simulated using hybrid air gap and FR4 dielectric material. The 28% wide bandwidth has been recorded through this approach. A 12.35dBi directive gain also recorded from the simulation. The 13.3 degree beamwidth of the radiation pattern is sufficient for high directional application. Since the proposed application was for Point to Point Link, this study concluded the Air Gap RLSA is a new candidate for this application.
