Microstrip antenna, microstrip dipole, patch antenna

The term microstrip antenna denotes all the antennas, which are fabricated by the microstrip technology. In this textbook, a microstrip dipole (narrow microstrip conductor on the true side of the substrate, which is interrupted by a feeding gap) and a patch antenna (rectangular antenna element of the true side of the substrate, which can be fed by a microstrip, by a coaxial probe, or by an aperture in the ground plane) belong to this class of antennas.
