The results are obtained by use of Finite Element Method (FEM). The obtained data show that method of excitation of monopole microstrip structures has significant influence on their integral characteristics. The results of investigations of three methods of excitation of monopole microstrip antennas with a complex configuration of radiators are presented. The spectral characteristics, matching characteristics with external circuits, the pattern characteristics are presented. The obtained results show that monopole microstrip resonators with complex configuration of radiators can be successfully used to provide the necessary integral parameters and to form the required parameters of radiated fields. %8 2018-10-08
