Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antenna

at
Microstrip is a type of electrical transmission line which can be fabricated using printed circuit board technology, and is used to convey microwave-frequency signals. It consists of a conducting strip separated from a ground plane by a dielectric layer known as the substrate.

The most commonly employed microstrip antenna is a rectangular patch which looks like a truncated microstrip transmission line. It is approximately of one-half wavelength long. When air is used as the dielectric substrate, the length of the rectangular microstrip antenna is approximately one-half of a free-space wavelength. As the antenna is loaded with a dielectric as its substrate, the length of the antenna decreases as the relative dielectric constant of the substrate increases. The resonant length of the antenna is slightly shorter because of the extended electric "fringing fields" which increase the electrical length of the antenna slightly. An early model of the microstrip antenna is a section of microstrip transmission line with equivalent loads on either end to represent the radiation loss.

Day 41 — BGP Confederations: Sub-AS Design, External View and Migration

1. Opening Confederations are another way to scale BGP inside a large administrative domain. They divide the domain into member autonomous systems while presenting a single confederation identifier to external peers. They are powerful, but their operational model is more complex than simply 'using private ASNs inside.' The engineering goal is not to memorize another BGP command. It is to understand what information each speaker is allowed to propagate, what path information can be hidden, and what failure domain is created by the chosen control-plane architecture . 2. Concept and standards behavior RFC 5065 defines AS_CONFED_SEQUENCE and AS_CONFED_SET and how member-AS relationships are represented. Confederation external sessions have eBGP-like properties inside the confederation, while the confederation is presented externally as one AS. Modern guidance must also account for the fact that RFC 9774 prohibits new origination of AS_SET/AS_CONFED_SET in ordinary aggregation c...
