Abstract :
Results are presented of the application of a finite-element method to investigate the influence on the microstrip disc resonator capacitance of the dimensions (R and H) of the conducting enclosure box. Measured values of the resonant frequency for a constructed prototype compare well with theory and show that, to within 1%, the effects of the shielded box can be neglected for R > 3a and H > 2a, where a is the circular patch radius.
