| Abstract: In this paper, silicon micromachining has been applied to enhance the antenna performance. The work is devoted to diminish the effect of propagation of higher order modes in substrates with high permittivity in printed antennas; hence one can increase the antenna bandwidth. The process of micromachining can remove the substrate of the silicon material of a substrate under some selected elements to enhance the antenna performance. after etching, the new given structure is effectively enhance the performance for Yagi Uda printed array operating at f=10 GHz. | ||||
