Far field radi<strong>at</strong>ion p<strong>at</strong>tern of the antenna <strong>at</strong> 7.1 <strong>GHz</strong>.The current on the antenna can be seen on Figure 5. As the affect on the gain is explained insection 2, the current is very crowded <strong>at</strong> the bottom horizontal metal radi<strong>at</strong>or loc<strong>at</strong>ed <strong>at</strong> the input of theantenna.Fig. 5. Current distribution on the antenna <strong>at</strong> 7.1 <strong>GHz</strong>.Finally, in order to get rid of the long edge-feeding line, probe-feeding is applied. Figure 6 hasthe top view, and Figure 7 has the 3D view of the probe-feeded antenna.264
