| Abstract: | A monopolar patch antenna that utilizes a novel bandwidth broadening technique is investigated experimentally and numerically. The proposed antenna consists of four trapezoidal plates that are connected orthogonally. A circular patch, which is shorted to the circular ground plane by four shorting wires, is placed at the top of them. The antenna possesses 10- and 14-dB return loss bandwidths of 138% and 107.2% respectively, which is about 49 times that of the corresponding monopolar wire-patch antenna. Also, it provides monopole-like radiation patterns over such wide operating bandwidth. As the proposed antenna can achieve such wide impedance bandwidth with relatively low profile, it is very suitable for multi-band mobile communication systems. |
