Simulation and Design of a Tunable Patch Antenna摘要
A method for designing a tunable microstrip patch antenna is presented, suggesting cooperation between a theoretical transmission line model and a professional electromagnetic simulation tool. Tunable impedance elements are used to perturb the microstrip patch to alter the tuning range of the antenna. Results show excellent correlation between theoretical calculations and simulation data from Sonnet. Finally, guidelines for designing an antenna to be excited by an IMPATT diode are discussed.
