The design of an ultra-wideband microstrip patch antenna with a small coplanar capacitive feed strip is presented. The proposed rectangular patch antenna provides an impedance bandwidth of nearly 50%, and has stable radiation patterns for almost all frequencies in the operational band. Results presented here show that such wide bandwidths are also possible for triangular and semiellipse geometries with a similar feed arrangement. The proposed feed is a very small strip placed very close to the radiator on a substrate above the ground plane. Shape of the feed strip can also be different, so long as the area is not changed. Experimental results agree with the simulated results. Effects of key design parameters such as the air gap between the substrate and the ground plane, the distance between radiator patch and feed strip, and the dimensions of the feed strip on the input characteristics of the antenna have been investigated and discussed. As demonstrated here, the proposed antenna can be redesigned for any frequency in the L-, S-, C-, or X-band. A design criterion for the air gap has been empirically obtained to enable maximum antenna bandwidth for all these operational frequencies.

An antenna is a device that is made to efficiently radiate and receive radiated Electromagnetic waves. Microstrip antennas are attractive due to their light weight, conformability and low cost. These antennas can be integrated with printed strip-line feed networks and active devices. This is a relatively new area of antenna engineering. For reducing the size of antenna, fractal geometries have been introduced in the design of patch antenna. Fractal antennas also called as space filling curves are very compact, multiband or wideband, and have useful applications in cellular telephone and microwave communications. In our research work, we have used IE3D software for designing the antenna. We study the effect of variations of slot dimensions on antenna performance so as to obtain good results. In this research work, four different fractal patch antennas are designed. The rectangular base geometry is same for the all four antennas but the elliptical slot dimensions differ. In simulation, S parameters of all four antennas are analyzed. From the S parameter displays, comparison of all four antennas is done on the basis of three parameters that are: Lowest frequency, Multiband and S11 values. The simulation results shows that as the elliptical slot dimension decreases on rectangular patch antenna, the performance of fractal patch antenna improves on the basis of three factors that are lowest frequency, multiband and s11 values.

In this paper, we resolve two issues of microstrip antennas, which are miniaturization and efficiency behavior. For  that, a rectangular patch antenna with 16×18×1.6 mm3 dimensions with dual-band characteristics, was designed, fabricated and characterized.  In order to improve the problem of narrow bandwidth in  microstrip antennas, we implement in this study the slot  technique, allowing us to achieve our purpose. This technique,  lead to a good reflection coefficient and VSWR. The  characteristics of the fabricated antenna were measured and  analyzed by Vector Network Analyzer. The results show two  resonance frequencies that define two bandwidths defined by a  return loss less than -10 dB and are respectively; 7.47 GHz at a  frequency of 400 MHz, and 11.01 GHz at a frequency of 790  MHz. Also, the obtained gain has a good value and it’s very  remarkable according to the small size of the structure, with  a peak value of 6.1 dB at 12.5 GHz.  The small size and good characteristics enlarged the applications  domains of our structure, from telecommunications and  especially Radar, satellite communications to medical and  wireless applications.

Novel Method

The chosen rectangular and fractal microstrip patch antennas above an infinite ground plane are analyzed by the theory of characteristic modes. The resonant frequencies and radiationQare evaluated. A novel method by Vandenbosch for rigorous evaluation of the radiationQis employed for modal currents on a Rao-Wilton-Glisson (RWG) mesh. It is found that the resonant frequency of a rectangular patch antenna with a dominant mode presents quite complicated behaviour including having a minimum at a specific height. Similarly, as predicted from the simple wire model, the radiationQexhibits a minimum too. It is observed that the presence of out-of-phase currents flowing along the patch antenna leads to a significant increase of theQfactor.

Effective Design

In this work, the issue of limited bandwidth typical of microstrip antennas realized on a single thin substrate is addressed. A simple yet effective design approach is proposed based on the combination of traditional single-resonance patch geometries. Two novel shaped microstrip patch antenna elements with an inset feed are presented. Despite being printed on a single-layer substrate with reduced thickness, both radiators are characterized by a broadband behavior. The antennas are prototyped with a low-cost and fast manufacturing process, and measured results validate the simulations. State-of-the-art performance is obtained when compared to the existing literature, with measured fractional bandwidths of 3.71% and 6.12% around 10 GHz on a 0.508-mm-thick Teflon-based substrate. The small feeding line width could be an appealing feature whenever such radiating elements are to be used in array configurations.
