Abstract :
It has previously been reported that, by loading a shorting pin at the edge of a microstrip patch, the antenna size for operating at a fixed frequency can be significantly reduced. However, such short-circuited patch antennas also result in a narrower bandwidth, as compared to the conventional microstrip patch antenna. To overcome this disadvantage, we present in this paper a new configuration of the compact microstrip antenna with chip-resistor and chip capacitor loadings.
