A new design of a wideband dually-polarized shorted microstrip patch antenna coupled to hook shaped probes is presented. The antenna is designed to operate around 4 GHz. The mechanisms of the shorted microstrip patch antenna provide wider impedance bandwidth over 37%. The shorted patch is smaller than as with to the unshorted patch. The present design provides about 40 dB isolation level betwee...

Microstrip patch antennas are widely used in modern day communication devices due to their light weight, low cost and ease of fabrication. In this paper, we have designed a Microstrip Patch Antenna and array of patch for 2.45GHz for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) applications using antenna simulation software. The designed antenna consists of rectangular radiating patch on FR-4 (lossy) subs...

In this study, a radiation pattern reconfigurable microstrip antenna is designed and fabricated. The antenna’s radiation pattern is directed in 9 different angles by employing a radiating patch and embedding complementary split ring resonators (CSRR) on the ground plane. The radiating patch is of circular shape, while for CSRR elements both circular and rectangular shapes are investigated. The ...

The dual band microstrip antenna is realized by placing the open circuit stub or by cutting the slot inside the patch. The compact microstrip antenna is realized by placing the shorting post or plate along the zero field line at the fundamental mode of the patch. In this paper, a compact variation of equilateral triangular microstrip antenna, a shorted 600 sectoral microstrip antenna is discuss...

This paper presents a single-patch broadband microstrip Sshaped patch antenna. Microstrip S-shaped patch antenna, fed by a coaxial feeding. The antenna is designed by inserting two slots into rotated square patch then it look like english letter S. Because of the slots and thick substrate, bandwidth of antenna is increased. The proposed antenna is operating at centre frequency of 4.3GHz (i.e ne...

The microstrip patch is one of the most preferred antenna structures for ofordable and compact design for wireless system and RF applications. This paper compares the rectangular patch antenna and equilateral triangular microstrip antenna in terms of their return losses and radiation pattern. For the comparative study the Ansoft HFSS V11 is used. Keywords— rectangular micro strip antenna, retur...

In this paper, the cavity model of a microstrip patch antenna in conjunction with the reciprocity theorem is used to develop a fast analytical solution for the radiation field of a microstrip patch antenna loaded with a novel artificial magnetic superstrate and to investigate the effect of the engineered superstrate layer on the directivity and radiation pattern of the printed patch antenna.

A dual microstrip meander slot antenna is presented for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) application. The proposed antenna comprises a rectangular microstrip patch element embedded with two meander slots. The parametric study is performed to investigate the characteristics of microstrip patch antenna with double meandered slots compared to one without any meander slot. Microstrip patch antenn...

A microstrip patch antenna is designed that have metallic ring coplanar to radiation patch for gain enhancement is proposed. The design forces conversion of the surface wave energy into the space wave energy by the scattering of surface waves from metallic ring. The metallic ring is placed around the metal patch at a distance of d1 from the edges of the metal patch and width of metallic ring is...

Asymmetric-circular shaped slotted microstrip patch antennas with slits are proposed for circularly polarized(CP) radiation and radio frequency identification reader applications. A single-feed configuration based asymmetric-circular shaped slotted square microstrip patches are adopted to realize the compact circularly polarized microstrip antenna. The CP radiation can be achieved by slightly a...
