Abstract

In this paper, a dual-band low-profile switched beam square-loop antenna (SLA) fed by capacitively coupled feeding mechanism is presented. Two square loops are excited by four rectangular feeding patches which are fed with vertical probes. The capacitively coupled feeding arrangement introduces capa...
