Thanks a lot for the very helpful point about impedance matching with the balun. since the two microstrip dipole arms must have 180 degree out of phase current in them. Somehow I had missed it initially.

You need a balun for driving the symmetrical antenna and Lambda/2 is too long. Also You need the effective epsilon_r to shorten 2nd time of You constellation. Use Balanis/Dipol for a first lenght, and then calculate the effective epsiolon_r for 2nd shortening. www.leobaumann.de/usaantennenimpedanz.htm :)

Could some electronics guru here please clarify this a bit.
As a microstrip is a transmission line, can a half wavelength dipole antenna be modeled as two transmission lines, each of physical length wavelength/4, coupled
capacitively? The free ends of each microstrip drive 
free space impedances(377 Ohm) each, whereas the other 
end of one is connected to the signal source, and the 
other microstrip has one end grounded. Any flaws in this reasoning ?
