Microstrip patch antennas has many advantage due to light weight and small size, low cost but also have some disadvantage as low gain , narrow band width these are the two important parameters. This review paper describe how we can increase the performance of the patch antenna by using metamaterials or how we can improve the gain & bandwidth. Here we first provide the introduction of metamateri...

Differential evolution (DE) algorithm is applied to the design of single-layer and multi-layer microstrip antennas. For the design of single-layer co-axial probe-fed microstrip antenna, fitness function is obtained from cavity model theory of microstrip antenna, whereas for the design of multi-layer aperture-coupled microstrip antenna, transmission line model is used to obtain fitness function ...

the design of microstrip antenna for improved bandwidth and directive gain is a challenge for researchers. This paper proposes the design of a Microstrip Square-Patch antenna with enhanced Bandwidth and Directive Gain. The design and simulation of this antenna has been done with the help of Ansoft HFSS. The simulated results give significant improvement in terms of directive gain and bandwidth....

This paper present a circular patch microstrip array antenna operate in KU-band (10.9GHz – 17.25GHz). The proposed circular patch array antenna will be in light weight, flexible, slim and compact unit compare with current antenna used in KU-band. The paper also presents the detail steps of designing the circular patch microstrip array antenna. An Advance Design System (ADS) software is used to ...

Regularly shaped compact microstrip antennas have a small size but their gain is insufficient for most applications. Therefore, a ring-shaped compact microstrip reflectarray with microstrip antenna feed has been proposed. Different configurations, namely, 1 × 3, 3 × 1, plus-shaped and 3 × 3 have been analyzed. The 3 × 3 configuration yields an optimum gain of 10. 8 dBi and a narrow beamwidth of...

The compact variation of equilateral triangular microstrip antenna, a shorted 600 Sectoral microstrip antenna is discussed. The proximity fed shorted 600 Sectoral microstrip antenna is proposed which gives simulated and measured BW of more than 700 MHz (>60%). To increase the bandwidth and gain, gap-coupled configuration two Shorted 600 Sectoral patches is proposed. It yields simulated and meas...

In this paper, an Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) model has been developed to design the multilayer Rectangular microstrip patch. In the design procedure, synthesis ANN model is used as feed forward network to calculate the resonant frequency. Analysis ANN model is used as the reverse side of the problem to calculate the antenna dimension. The network is trained with the data obtained from mea...

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 antenna finds applications in varied and upcoming technologies because it offers low profile, narrow bandwidth, high gain, and compact antenna element. The microstrip antenna have biggest disadvantage of narrow bandwidth and poor impedance matching. To make microstrip antenna compatible with commercial applications, the bandwidth enhancement and impedance matching of such antenna...
