In this study an irregularly shaped microstrip patch antenna was designed, simulated, and optimized for air-to-ground communication (ATG) applications. The process started with the design of a rectangular patch antenna with the traditional transmission line and cavity methods, followed by a simulation with the finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) in conjunction with a genetic algorithm (GA). The aim of the study was to design an efficient patch antenna. The designed antenna is resonating at 14.25 GHz with 35 dB return loss. The 10 dB bandwidth of the antenna is 3.7 GHz.

A compact wideband stacked patch antenna is presented for the applications of GPS systems. This antenna covers the L1, L2, and L5 GPS bands of operating frequencies 1.575, 1.227, and 1.176 GHz, respectively. High permittivity dielectric materials are used to minimize the antenna dimensions. The obtained antenna is of dimensions  mm. To verify the design, the time dependence field distribution, the scattering parameters, and the radiation pattern are presented. The scattering parameters show that the antenna operates at the GPS frequencies with lower than  dB. The finite difference time domain (FDTM) with the perfect matched layer (PML) is used in the present analysis.

In this paper, a composite patch antenna based on lefthanded material (LHM) with near zero index (NZI) is presented.This composite patch antenna is designed by assembling splitresonant rings (SRRs) and metal strips on the substrates. Thismultilayer composite structure results in a metamaterial with NZInear 13.89 GHz. A method of finite difference time domain(FDTD) is used. The results show that the composite antenna’sgain improves 0.61 times, and its bandwidth adds 2.95 timescompared to the conventional antenna’s ones. The results indicatethat this composite patch antenna system can reduce return loss ofthe antenna and increase the gain obviously.
