Abstract
The dynamic permittivity of a microstrip structure leads to a convenient and modified Smith-chart representation that includes the frequency-dependent influence of the lossy characteristics of the line cohesively. The efficacy of the model is illustrated with an example concerning a microstrip patch antenna. Relevant simulations show that the input impedances calculated from the model are more accurate than those from the previous model in the literature by comparing to the measure results, as illustrated with an example of a patch antenna. This model is compatible for CAD efforts with MATLAB
