Abstract

Claims (11)

1. A microstrip antenna, comprising:

a substrate having a surface;

a feedline disposed on the surface and extending along a first axial direction;

an impedance matching structure disposed on the surface and having a first end and a second end in the first axial direction, wherein the first end is connected to the feedline; the impedance matching structure has a first section, a second section, and a third section in the first axial direction, wherein the first section has the first end, the third section has the second end, and the second section is located between the first section and the third section; the first section has a first width in a second axial direction perpendicular to the first axial direction, the second section has a second width in the second axial direction, and the third section has a third width in the second axial direction, wherein the second width is smaller than the first width and the third width; and

a patch radiator disposed on the surface, wherein the patch radiator and the second end of the impedance matching structure are adjacent and spaced by a distance in the first axial direction, and the second end of the impedance matching structure is coupled with the patch radiator through the distance,

wherein the first section of the impedance matching structure has a first length in the first axial direction, the second section of the impedance matching structure has a second length in the first axial direction, and the third section of the impedance matching structure has a third length in the first axial direction; the third length is smaller than the second length, and the second length is smaller than the first length.

2. The microstrip antenna as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the third width is smaller than or equal to the first width.

3. The microstrip antenna as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second length is at least three times the third length.

4. The microstrip antenna as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the first length is at least 7 times the third length.

5. The microstrip antenna as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the patch radiator has a fourth width in the second axial direction, and the fourth width is larger than the third width and the first width.

6. The microstrip antenna as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the distance ranges between 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm.
