“…1,2 In past two decades, several size reduction methods have been reported for achieving the compact printed antenna structures. [3][4][5][6] Some commonly developed techniques are: embedding/loading slots in to the radiating patches, 4,7-10 embedding slits and spur lines on to the antenna patches, 11,12 use of radiating patches with multilayered or stacked substrates or folded patch structures, 13 by the use substrates offering high relative permittivity to be applied for supporting the radiating patches, 14,15 by the insertion of shorting pins and posts 16 and by defecting ground plane structure through integration or removal of several structures. 5,6,17,18 Modified ground plane/DGS is also one of the most significant techniques for achieving antenna compactness either in terms of size or resonant frequency.…”
