Abstract A novel compact microstrip antenna design is demonstrated. By embedding meandering slots in the antenna's ground plane, it is observed that the resonant frequency of the microstrip antenna is significantly lowered, which can lead to a large antenna size reduction for a fixed frequency operation. In addition, enhanced impedance bandwidth and antenna gain are also observed for the proposed antenna. Details of the proposed design and experimental results of the constructed prototypes are presented and discussed. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 29: 95–97, 2001.
