Abstract

A Centre fed slot dipole antenna excited with coplanar waveguide feed is presented and discussed. The very high impedance of an open ended coplanar waveguide (CPW) is made lower by off centering the feed position, optimizing the feed length and by using a T-shaped feed. All presented prototypes are fabricated on a substrate of dielectric constant 4.4 and thickness 1.6mm.
