Far Field Pattern

The far-field pattern characteristics of line sources lying between the slabs of a four-dielectric substrate configuration are presented. The patterns are calculated for several cases of the substrate thickness as well as for several line-source locations. The considerations that are made give useful applications in remote sensing and microstrip antennas.

Frequency Shifting

When circularly polarized (CP) microstrip antennas are bent, the polarization becomes elliptical. We present a simple model that describes the phenomenon. The two linear modes present in a CP patch are modeled separately and added together to produce CP. Bending distorts the almost-spherical equiphase surface of a linearly polarized patch, which leads to phase imbalance in the far-field of a CP patch. The model predicts both the frequency shifting of the axial ratio band as well as the narrowing of the axial ratio beam. Uncontrolled bending is a problem associated especially with flexible textile antennas, and wearable antennas should therefore be designed somewhat conformal.
