MANDAL %J International Journal of Engineering Science and Technology %D 2011 %I Engg Journals Publication %X A simple and accurate CAD model based on cavity model analysis is proposed to predict the effect of superstrate or radome on resonant frequencies of an equilateral triangular patch antenna. The computed values for wide range of superstrate parameters and patch sizes are compared with different theoretical and experimental values available in open literature showing close agreement. A MaxwellˇŻs equation solver is used to generate some simulated data. %K CAD %K triangle %K superstrate %U http://www.ijest.info/docs/IJEST11-03-01-085.pdf
