Abstract :
It is important to realize a unidirectional planar antenna in this paper. A planar antenna with posts is proposed and analyzed by FDTD method. The characteristic of return loss has a resonance frequency and its radiation patterns are unidirectional. The characteristics of the antenna are compared with those of other antenna.
