• Resumen

  • Gap-loaded microstrip square-ring antennas are investigated in this study. Because of the gap loading, the square-ring antenna resonates at much lower frequency than that in the unloaded case, which gives a miniaturized narrowband antenna. A detail parametric study is carried out to understand its properties. An experimental prototype is fabricated and its performance is compared with simulations, confirming the computed results.
