A small, printed antenna provides high efficiency, good isolation and a broad working bandwidth. These characteristics are achieved with a patch antenna by placing a shunt to ground connected to the feeding point of the patch. This shunt comprises a line running along one edge of the patch. The patch dimensions can be adjusted, and in particular reduced, by changing the L and C characteristics of the patch. This is accomplished with arrays of slots defining corresponding arrays of fingers along the edges of the patch. Impedance matching is achieved by altering the dimensions of the slots.
