Radiation properties of microstrip dipoles
Abstract
The fundamental problem of printed antennas is addressed. The printed or microstrip dipole is considered, and its radiation characteristics are investigated. The Green's function to the problem is obtained in dyadic form by solving the problem of Hertzian dipole printed on a grounded substrate. Input impedance computations are presented, and the numerical solution for the Sommerfeld integrals is discussed
