Here we made an attempt to maximize the gain of microstrip patch antenna. To achieve this we used microstrip circular patch antenna at 5.8 GHz frequency ISM Band Application. Single FSS (frequency selective surface) substrate is used to increase efficiency. Parameters are set accordingly and results of microstrip patch antenna with FSS layer and microstrip patch antenna without substrate later ...

This paper presents a novel textile wearable antenna that has been designed to operate at Wi-Fi bands of 2.4GHz & 5.8GHz. Antenna performance in free space environment showed Gain of 1.8dBi at 2.4GHz and 4.5dBi at 5.8GHz. However, performance deteriorated when antenna was operated near human body which is lossy and complex in nature. For mitigating the human body effect on antenna performance, ...

The Log-Periodic Loop Antenna with Ground Reflector (LPLA-GR) is investigated as a new type of antenna, which provides wide bandwidth, broad beamwidth, and high gain. This antenna has smaller transverse dimensions (by a factor of 2/π) than a log-periodic dipole antenna with comparable radiation characteristics. Several geometries with different parameters are analyzed numerically using ESP code...

The design, fabrication, and characterization of the microstrip circular antenna arrays were presented. The proposed antennas were designed for single band at 2.45 GHz and dual bands at 3.3 3.6 and 5.0 6.0 GHz to support WLAN/WiMAX applications. The proposed single and dual band antennas showed omnidirectional radiation pattern with the gain values of 3.5 dBi at 2.45 GHz, 4.0 dBi at 3.45 GHz, a...

This paper presents a design of Wide-Band Microstrip Yagi-Uda antenna with high gain and high front to back (F/B) ratio. Numerical and measured results of our design show more than 18 dB front to back ratio at 5.5 GHz and no backward radiation at 5.2GHz. An impedance bandwidth of 22.05% was achieved around 5.5GHz. The antenna gain (10–12.4 dBi) can be varied to be suitable for various applicati...

Abstract—In this article, the design of an electromagnetically-coupled millimeter-wave elliptical patch array antenna prepared to work in the 56–65 GHz (14.8%) frequency band is presented. The introduced antenna array is designed for low-loss, high-gain and low cross-polarization levels.
