Microstrip Antenna
A Microstrip Antenna is a type of antenna that consists of a thin metallic patch mounted on a dielectric substrate. This design allows for a lightweight and compact structure, making it suitable for various applications, including mobile devices and satellite communications. The antenna operates by radiating electromagnetic waves, which can be tuned to specific frequencies by adjusting the size and shape of the patch.
These antennas are popular due to their low profile and ease of fabrication. They can be designed to operate in different frequency bands, such as those used in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. Additionally, Microstrip Antennas can be integrated into circuit boards, enhancing their versatility in modern technology.
