Abstract: This paper presents a novel high gain rectangular microstrip patch antenna (RMSA) with vertically placed Yagi elements. The antenna is fed by a coaxial probe to excite TM01 fundamental waves at 2.4GHz, which is suitable for wireless local area network (WLAN) applications. In order to increase the antenna gain, Yagi elements are placed in groups of 5, on each side of the substrate in order to serveas directors for the radiating slots as well as the ground reflections. The proposed antenna offers 1.3dB gain improvement and %3 .1 impedance bandwidth increase in comparison to the plain rectangular microstrip antenna with the same specifications. The advantage of this antenna is to provide an easy and cost effective solution to increase microstrip antenna gain, particularly in 8-10dB range, without disruptingits planar structure.
