The subject of enhancing microstrip patch antennas directivity, using either a frequency selective surface (FSS) or a double-negative (DNG) metamaterial slab, has been investigated by a number of researchers in recent years. The purpose of this paper is to show that we can also achieve the same goal by using a much simpler design for the superstrate, namely a dielectric slab, whose performance ...
