← ScienceWhich consequence results when a microstrip antenna's substrate thickness increases?
A)Reduced radiation bandwidth✓
B)Increased gain efficiency
C)Lower resonant frequency
D)Enhanced impedance matching
💡 Explanation
Increased substrate thickness allows greater fringing fields that disrupt the intended resonant modes, leading to a reduced bandwidth, because far-field pattern quality degrades with Q-factor dependence on losses. Bandwidth specifically decreases therefore, rather than other listed effects under such changed environment.
