Abstract
Bandwidth broadening techniques for microstrip antennas have been studied for a number of years. A popular method is the use of parasitic elements, either in stacked geometry1 or in coplanar geometry2. The stacked geometry involves more than one patch and more than one dielectric layer, with the result that the antenna thickness is increased. The coplanar geometry has one dielectric layer but requires parasitic patches adjacent to the fed patch, thereby increasing the lateral size of the antenna.
