i am working on wideband microstrip slot antenna for 1.8Ghz resonance frequency. i am getting resonance frequency above 5Ghz , how to reduce this frequency?
Array of the lumped capacitors soldered across the slot shifts the slot frequency down. You may restrict yourself to a very simple example of a single capacitor, which is the easiest and the cheapest way to tune the slot antenna resonance.
At high frequencies lumped capacitor may be replaced by quarter-wave transmission line (this configuration is quite close to one described in Mr. White post).
