microstrip patch antenna design.
which type of performance do u want to change?
Actually i want to design microstrip patch antenna using capacitively loaded loop which should be used in UWB frequency range,,so which type of feed should i use?microstrip line or coaxial feed?
usually microstrip feed by SMA it related your choice for more information about this antenna and capacity load u can read broadband microstrip antenna by kin Lu Wong
Microstrip feed is a better option as probe fed antennas usually have lower BW as compared to other feed techniques.
Can you give some more detail on this, or technical references?
Any microstrip antenna handbook would give you detailed info on the feed techniques. For Example - Microstrip Handbook by Bahl and Bhatia.
I am aware of the antenna design handbooks and different feed types, but was not aware that feed type changes the bandwidth. Can you give a technical reasoning or reference to support your statement? Balanis only mentioned proximity coupling feed as having larger bandwidth, but does not mention any difference in bandwidth between standard microstrip feed and probe feed.
Here is a quick basics of antenna feeds attached. Page 7.
Quote for your PDF:
"Probe-fed microstrip patches have similar issues to edge-fed patches; namely, their bandwidth is somewhat small"
Microstrip feed is not only edge feed, but it could also be proximity coupled / aperture coupled which are no doubt better than probe feed when it comes to BW.
One possible reason why the BW of probe feed is smaller than that of microstrip feed is due to the parasitic inductance introduced by the excessive height of the probe penetrating through the whole substrate.
