Popis: A rectangular microstrip antenna is gradually divided into equal smaller elements along the width, and lengths of these smaller strips are varied to increase the separation between the resonances to obtain dual and triple frequency operation. Likewise, configurations consisting a maximum of five strips have been investigated. For configurations with two strips only dual frequency operation has been obtained, whereas for configurations with more than two strips both dual and triple frequency operation has been obtained. With increase in number of elements, the separation between different resonances is more and the radiation pattern is also similar in two frequency bands. Experiments have been performed and the results are in agreement with the simulations. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
