What is it about?

The microstrip antenna with an air gap was introduced by Lee and Dahle and has been investigated for HPMA. The antenna consists of a hexagonal patch where an air gap also exists between the ground plane and the substrate below the hexagonal patch radiator. Recent years have seen a huge development in low-cost compact antennas for communications purposes.

Why is it important?

This is where the microstrip antenna shines due to its lightweight and compact size and capability of giving good radiation characteristics over a wide range of frequencies.

Perspectives

Microstrip antennas consist of planar resonant radiating elements parallel to, but separated from a ground plane by a thin dielectric substrate (t<<ʎ).
