In this paper, a first patch antenna design with TiN/Ag multilayer material as antenna patch is demonstrated. The advantage of this multilayer material is its high resistance corrosion. Since the patterning of this material by photolithography is not simple, neither it cannot be soldered nor bonding wires easily, a proximity electromagnetic coupling method is employed for this design. This antenna comprises an Alumina substrate (with the grown TiN/Ag layers) on top of a baquelite substrate, where the microstrip feeding line is patterned. This antenna was measured showing a central frequency of 3.58 GHz with 196 MHz of bandwidth, and a gain of 5.7 dBi.
