Abstract	By using a novel inverted U-shaped radiating patch in place of the conventional planar patch, compact operation of air-substrate patch antennas is presented. The inverted U-shaped patch is formed by adding two downward rims at the two radiating edges of a planar rectangular or square patch. And owing to the added rims, the excited patch's surface current paths are lengthened, which effectively lowers the antenna's resonant frequency and results in large antenna size reduction (>50%). The proposed compact design has been successfully applied to air-substrate patch antennas fed by an aperture-coupled feed. In addition to large size reduction obtained, the proposed antenna with an air-substrate thickness about 5% the wavelength of the center operating frequency can have an impedance bandwidth (10-dB return loss) greater than 9%, a peak antenna gain of about 6.4 dBi, and good broadside radiation patterns with cross-polarization levels better than 20 dB in principal planes.
