Discussion
There are some difference between important parameter between calculation and
simulation especially the matching line between 100 ohm line and patch. There are
some hypothesis on this that may need to discover in future as below :

i ) Most of the calculation is approximate.

ii) Limitation of the formula that did not conver for very high frequency such

Antenna efficiency losses are typically due to:


i) conduction losses (due to finite conductivity of the metal that forms
the antenna)
ii) dielectric losses (due to conductivity of a dielectric material near an
antenna)

Axial ratio and Polarization

Axial ratio is the parameter majorly used to describe the polarization nature of
circularly polarized antennas. The Axial Ratio (AR) is defined as the ratio
between the minor and major axis of the polarization ellipse. Linear

diversity can be waste. Antenna is consider as eliptical polarization if having
axial ratio between 3dB to 20 dB, and as circular polarization if having <3 dB
axial ratio.
