Abstract
- Classical microstrip patch antenna fabricated on a dielectric substrate suffers from poor gain, efficiency, and high cross polarization due to the automatic excitation of TM0 surface wave. It also radiates strong fields along the horizon which is susceptible to multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) or array configurations. In view of this, a separate class of circular microstrip antenna known as the reduced surface wave (RSW) circular patch antenna has been proposed with a pair of shorting strips. Unlike earlier RSW-inspired antennas that mainly confirmed their ability for the successful reduction in the mutual coupling between array elements, here, and the enhancement of radiation properties is considered.
