A. Reineix et B. Jecko, A TIME-DOMAIN THEORETICAL METHOD FOR THE ANALYSIS OF MICROSTRIP ANTENNAS COMPOSED BY SLOTS, Annales des telecommunications, 48(1-2), 1993, pp. 29-34
In this paper, a time domain method is introduced for analyzing micros
trip antennas having thin slots. The present method is based on a reso
lution of Maxwell's equations using the finite difference time domain
method. A particular investigation has been made for taking thin slots
into account, this avoids a prohibitive grid to represent the slots.
Two kinds of antennas have been analyzed by this method : the slot ant
ennas and the radiating patch fed by a line through a slot.
