Analysis and test of patch antennas for applications in dual-band and diversity systems
Abstract
dc:descriptionIn this thesis, a study of patch antennas for applications in dual-band and diversity systems is presented. The dual-band capability is achieved with two patches that are stacked vertically and coupled by an aperture in the lower patch. The aperture provides a convenient way of adjusting the separation between the resonant frequencies of the antenna and represents very little added manufacturing complexity. This configuration is applied to the design of a circularly polarized dual-band antenna satisfying frequency specifications for the Global Positioning System (GPS).
