TL;DR: In this paper, a microstrip antenna with an output termination which can be open-circuited or short-circuited, and at varying lengths, to change the frequency at which the micro-strip antenna can be made resonant.
Abstract: A microstrip antenna design according to which a plurality of resonant frencies can be obtained for a given size radiator, to increase the usefulness of the antenna by providing for frequency diversity operation and by making the microstrip antenna tunable over a range of frequencies. As will be seen, the microstrip antenna is provided with an output termination which can be open-circuited or short-circuited, and at varying lengths, to change the frequency at which the microstrip antenna can be made resonant.

TL;DR: In this article, a method for altering the resonant length of a square micro-strip antenna is described, and the relevant analysis and computations have been carried out to propose a possibility of realising a microstrip antenna having comparatively smaller dimensions and larger bandwidth.

TL;DR: The radio frequency characteristics and design parameters for microstrip disk antenna elements and planar arrays are presented and two C-band model arrays were designed and tested to demonstrate the technique of using microstrip elements for array applications.
Abstract: The radio frequency characteristics and design parameters for microstrip disk antenna elements and planar arrays are presented. Two C-band model arrays (an 8 element linear and an 8 by 8 planar) were designed, fabricated, and tested to demonstrate the technique of using microstrip elements for array applications. These arrays were designed with a cosine amplitude distribution.
