Abstract

This paper presents a full-wave spectral-domain analysis for electromagnetically coupled microstrip antennas printed on anisotropic substrates. Working in the Fourier domain and using the symbolic derivation capability of the Mathematica™ package, spectral Green´s functions in compact and closed-form are derived. To better visualize the behavior of these functions, typical 2D and 3D graphics are presented. Rectangular patch antennas and printed dipoles are analyzed to illustrate the formulation.
