چکیده
This paper presents the design of a wideband 16 4 element array of a microstrip-proximity-fed rectangular-slot antenna for marine radar systems operating in the X-band. A wideband corporatefeed network is designed to feed the proposed array. The new design has a small size, a wide bandwidth of 52%, and good radiation characteristics in the entire operating band. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A Capacitive Fed Microstrip Patch Antenna with Air Gap for Wideband Applications (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper a microstrip antenna on a suspended substrate with capacitive feed is presented. capacitive feed is created by a slot within the rectangular patch around the feed point. The proposed antenna exhibits a much higher impedance bandwidth of about 47% (S11 < −10 dB). Effects of key design parameters such as the air gap between the substrate and the ground plane, the gap width between r...

width of 77 percent for a 2:1 VSWR. However, the impedance bandwidth of this antenna design is still not enough to cover most wireless applications. It is important to enhance the impedance bandwidth of microstrip-fed wideslot antennas. In this article, a novel design of a microstrip-fed, printed rectangular slot antenna, with a small trapezoidal slot tuning for wireless applications, is propos...
