Abstract

A new method based on the backpropagation multilayered perceptron network for calculating the bandwidth of resonant rectangular microstrip patch antennas is presented. The method can be used for a wide range of substrate thicknesses and permittivities, and is useful for the computer-aided design (CAD) of microstrip antennas. The results obtained by using this new method are in conformity with those reported elsewhere. This method may find wide applications in high-frequency printed antennas, especially at the millimeter-wave frequency range.
