Patch antennas with heterogeneous substrates and reduced material consumption enabled by additive manufacturing techniques
conference contribution
posted on 2012-10-17, 10:25 authored by William WhittowWilliam Whittow, Chinwe C. Njoku, J. C. VardaxoglouThis paper investigates the concept of creating
substrates with heterogeneous dielectric properties. By
suitably locating areas of low and high permittivity, the
second resonance can be moved closer to the 1st resonance and
multiband antennas can be created. By combining, the
resonances, the bandwidth of the antenna can be increased.
