Abstract

A broadband couple-fed planar antenna including radiating strips on the ground plane. Plural radiating strips are electrically connected to a ground plane and are formed on the same plane of the ground plane. The radiating strip has a first segment extended from an edge of the ground and a second segment bend at an angle connected to the first segment. The couple-fed planar antenna has a feeding line coupling signals to the radiating strips. The number of the radiating strips is flexible for the required bandwidth of the couple-fed plannar antenna.
