Design of Broadband Aperture-Stacked Patch Microstrip Antennas Based on Third Order Filtering Equivalent Circuits

In this paper the authors describe the design of a broadband aperture-stacked patch (ASP) microstrip antenna based on a filtering equivalent circuit. The antenna consists of two stacked microstrip patches that are fed by a microstrip line through a resonant aperture. An equivalent circuit is propose...
