Previous issue date: 2005-03-31 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / This work consists on the theoretical and numerical analysis of some properties of circular microstrip patch antennas on isotropic and uniaxial anisotropic substrates. For this purpose, a full wave analysis is performed, using Hertz Vector Potentials method in the Hankel Transform domain. In the numerical analysis, the moment method is also used in order to determine some characteristics of the antenna, such as: resonant frequency and radiation pattern. The definition of Hertz potentials in the Hankel domain is used in association with Maxwell?s equations and the boundary conditions of the structures to obtain the Green?s functions, relating the components of the current density on the patch and the tangential electric field components. Then, the Galerkin method is used to generate a matrix equation whose nontrivial solution is the complex resonant frequency of the structure. In the analysis, a microstrip antenna with only one isotropic dielectric layer is initially considered. For this structure, the effect of using superconductor patches is also analyzed. An analysis of a circular microstrip antenna on an uniaxial anisotropic dielectric layer is performed, using the Hertz vector potentials oriented along the optical axis of the material, that is perpendicular to the microstrip ground plane. Afterwards, the circular microstrip antenna using two uniaxial anisotropic dielectric layers is investigated, considering the particular case in which the inferior layer is filled by air. In this study, numerical results for resonant frequency and radiation pattern for circular microstrip antennas on isotropic and uniaxial anisotropic substrates are presented and compared with measured and calculated results found in the literature / Este trabalho consiste na an?lise te?rica e num?rica das caracter?sticas de uma antena de microfita com patch circular, cujo substrato ? composto por materiais diel?tricos isotr?picos e anisotr?picos uniaxiais. Para isto, uma an?lise de onda completa ? realizada, utilizando-se o M?todo dos Potenciais Vetoriais de Hertz no dom?nio da transformada de Hankel. Na an?lise num?rica da estrutura, ? utilizado tamb?m o M?todo de Galerkin, como um caso particular do M?todo dos Momentos, visando a determina??o de suas caracter?sticas, tais como a freq??ncia de resson?ncia e o diagrama de radia??o. A defini??o dos potenciais vetoriais de Hertz, em conjunto com as equa??es de Maxwell e as condi??es de contorno da estrutura, permite a obten??o das fun??es di?dicas de Green, relacionando as componentes da densidade de corrente no patch com as componentes tangenciais do campo el?trico. O M?todo de Galerkin ? ent?o usado para gerar a equa??o matricial, cuja solu??o n?o trivial permite a obten??o da freq??ncia de resson?ncia complexa da estrutura. Na an?lise, s?o consideradas, inicialmente, antenas de microfita com uma camada diel?trica isotr?pica separando o patch e o plano de terra, sendo analisado ainda para esta estrutura, o caso no qual o patch ? composto por um material supercondutor. Em seguida, ? considerado tamb?m o caso no qual o substrato diel?trico ? composto por um material anisotr?pico uniaxial, orientando os potenciais vetoriais na dire??o do eixo ?ptico, que ? tomado na dire??o perpendicular ao plano de terra. ? feita ainda a an?lise da antena de microfita com patch circular situado sobre duas camadas diel?tricas anisotr?picas uniaxiais, considerando o caso particular do patch suspenso, no qual a camada inferior ? composta pelo ar. S?o apresentados resultados da freq??ncia de resson?ncia e do diagrama de radia??o para patches circulares isotr?picos e anisotr?picos, fazendo-se compara??es com outros resultados obtidos na literatura
