Summary:
Microstrip antennas has a few feeding technique applicable to them. One of them is the non-contacting feeds, which is the aperture-coupled feed techniques. The main mechanism of power transfer between its feed line and patch is the coupling mechanism through the aperture. This work is an effort to design, simulate, fabricate and measurement of passive and active rectangular patch with aperture coupled feed techniques. Simulation is being done using the Method of Moments (MoM). This is simulated in Microwave Office software. This design intends to focus on studying the differences in simulated and measured parameters of the antenna on its return loss, bandwidth and radiation pattern.
