Abstract: In this paper, the microstrip patch antennae are simulated with FDTD method to discuss the effect of superstrate and air gap. The resonant frequency are calculated as well. It is shown that the numerical results are identical with experimental results. The radiation pattern and bandwidth are also predicted and discussed.
