Sažetak
We have developed a rigorous simulation tool, applying the spectral domain method together with the Method of Moments, to model the electromagnetic properties of arbitrarily oriented microstrip patch antennas. The patches can be located inside or on the surface of a multilayer circular-cylindrical structure. The antenna structure is rigorously taken into account by using proper Green's functions and the array is analyzed using an element-by-element approach. The elements of the moment method matrix are calculated in the spectral domain, and special attention is given to their numerical treatment when analyzing cylindrical antennas with large radii. A laboratory model is built to test different configurations of patches and to validate calculated results. The agreement between measurements and calculations is very good.
