The text focuses primarily on details related to design concepts of stacked microstrip antennas, performance characteristics, and complete static analysis based on different approaches. It will further provide readers with an in-depth understanding of static analysis approaches for analyzing and understanding the performance of multi-layered stacked antennas. The book covers important topics such as conformal mapping, the transmission-line equivalent model-based approach, and the microstrip patch antenna model. The book also discusses reconfigurable stacked microstrip antennas, stacked microstrip antenna arrays, and a wide range of potential applications of stacked microstrip antennas.
