Microstrip antenna analysis using the method of fundamental solutions

Abstract

SUMMARYThe method of fundamental solutions (MFS) is proposed for the analysis of microstrip patch antennas of arbitrary shape. The MFS consists mainly in approximating the solution of a problem by a linear combination of known fundamental solutions associated with source points located outside the domain. The implementation of the MFS is simple and computationally efficient. Simulation results are obtained for rectangular, circular and triangular microstrip patch antennas. The resonance frequency and input impedance results are in good agreement with those published in the literature. Two prototypes have been fabricated and tested. Good agreement has been obtained between the MFS simulations and the experimental results.

Theoretical analysis of short backfire antenna by using Moment of method

“…As for Figure (5) of the coaxial voltage matrix, the voltages are only in the insulating region, due to the boundary conditions of the electromagnetic currents of the conductive and insulating surfaces, and its value begins to decrease. and the dielectric S de , and we note that the coaxial and tangential components are equal or identical to a large extent with a significant increase in the coaxial component in the main reflector area.…”

The effect of dielectric overlay on microstrip antenna embedded in composite laminated substrates

“…Because of the complexity involved, the antenna performance is often determined by FEMs or integral equations based on numerical techniques . Analytical solutions, if available, would be desirable to conduct parametric study of the substrate's variable affecting the antenna performance.…”
