Abstract
The antenna is a hybrid microstrip and reflector antenna having a planar patch antenna mounted to an upper surface of an insulated planar substrate. The substrate is coupled to a ground plane by one or more insulated couplers so as to form an airgap therebetween. A coaxial cable connectable to a transceiver is coupled to the bottom surface of the ground plane at the outer conductor thereof and the inner conductor is coupled to a feed pin which passes through the ground plane and protrudes through the surface of the patch. The feed pin is secured to the patch by soldering.
