Time Domain Finite Difference Analysis of Antennas

Abstract

In this report, the microstrip antenna is studied as an intermediate step to the development of a broadband type flare antenna, because the microstrip antennas have been well investigated so there are plenty of results available to check our time domain technique. In fact, the microstrip antennas have many advantages of their own, such as, lightweight, low profile, low fabrication costs, and ease for mass production. Despite their obvious disadvantages of narrow bandwidth and low power capacity, the microstrip antennas have found many areas of applications. Keywords: Antennas, Time domain, Finite difference, Analysis, Patch antenna, Thin substrate microstrip, Thick substrate microstrip.
