APPLICATIONS OF TRIANGULAR MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNAS: A STATE OF THE ART SURVEY

Abstract

The triangular geometry of the microstrip patch is one of the most common shapes having a wide range of applications ranging from circuit elements to modern wireless antennas. Recent survey of open literature shows interesting development of this patch as novel circuit elements and antennas. In this paper, a very comprehensive review of the applications and investigations on triangular microstrip patch (TMP) has been presented. The world of the antennas involves the understanding of the antennas' sense, function, parameter, and form. It is possible to describe an antenna as an electromechanical system capable of transmitting or receiving electromagnetic waves. This survey article provides a detailed analysis on the triangular microstrip patch antenna for wireless communication in order to reduce the overall size off the antenna.
