This paper proposes a model of the rectangular microstrip antenna based on the integral equation method and thin-wire approximation of a metal patch. A substrate is taken into consideration by inserting values of dielectric effective permittivity in the integral equations. The comparison of the calculated input impedance and resonant frequency with the experimental data and modeling results in commercial software is given.References
