Abstract :
A novel design for single layer slot antennas is presented. The antenna consists of a rectangular slot on the top of a substrate and two parasitic patches with a coplanar feed-line on the opposite side. The simulated and experimental data show good performances in terms of bandwidth and unidirectional radiation.
