Abstract
The finite difference time domain (FDTD) algorithm is used to analyze a two element broadside array of coax-fed stacked microstrip antennas. Special emphasis has been placed to obtain the mutual coupling of the antennas. A time domain approach is investigated to model the phase of the excitations
