I have designed an antenna, and surprisingly it possesses anti-parallel surface current distribution on the upper and bottom sides of the patch. I am confused how to explain this. Could anyone help me figure it out?
When a patch exhibits anti-parallel surface currents on its top and bottom sides, it functions as a dipole antenna. This arrangement generates an oscillating electric dipole moment along the patch's length, emitting electromagnetic waves perpendicular to the patch's plane. The resulting radiation pattern resembles a dipole, with maximum radiation at right angles to the patch and nulls along its length. The polarization of the emitted waves depends on the dipole's orientation. Dipole antennas are used in applications like wireless communication and broadcasting due to their simple design and effectiveness in certain frequency ranges. The antenna's behavior also depends on its dimensions and surrounding environment.
Hello,
I am giving few papers which may be helpful for the research.
Thanks,
