Abstract: | A multilayer structure, based on a patch antenna coupled through a nonresonant slot to a pair of feeding microstrips is a versatile module which can be used as a radiating and resonating element in a number of different configurations. Direct connection to a low cost transistor in a feedback loop results in a very simple active antenna, as reported. Different termination conditions at the four microstrip ports give rise to a number of alternative configurations for active generation/detection and multipatch arrays.<> |
