The Wheeler cap method for measuring the efficiency of microstrip antennas is revisited. First, we show that the parallel RLC model is a more appropriate model to use than a series one for the microstrip antennas under consideration. Our results are verified by numerical simulation using ENSEMBLE. Second, the role of the interior cavity modes is investigated and a reduced-height Wheeler cap is proposed. Finally, the Wheeler cap method is applied to measure the efficiency of miniaturized microstrip antennas designed using genetic algorithms.
