New kind of microstrip antenna: the monopolar wire-patch antenna

In reply to the Comment (given by Burbery, R.A., Elect., Lett., vol., p. 745, 1994) we wish to say: (i) Our antenna is a microstrip antenna with a dielectric substrate and a height varying between lambda /20 and lambda /100. At such heights the 'folded dipole' adaptation techniques are not applicable. >
