Abstract
The analysis of two innovative coplanar waveguide-fed planar antennas, applying a simulation tool based on the finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) in a nonuniformly discretized grid, is presented in thi s paper A planar slot and inverted F-antenna are designed realized, an d tested. The influence of the coaxial connector required for the meas urements is also examined. (C) 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
