Abstract
A wide-band probe fed patch antenna with low cross polarization and symmetrical broadside radiation pattern is proposed and studied. By employing a novel meandering probe feed and locating a patch about 0.1/spl lambda//sub 0/ above a ground plane, a patch antenna with 30% impedance bandwidth (SWR<2) and 9 dBi gain is designed. The far field radiation pattern of the antenna is stable across the operating bandwidth. Parametric studies and design guidelines of the proposed feeding structure are provided.Keywords
