Abstract In this paper, an analysis of dual frequency resonance antenna is achieved by OM-shape microstrip patch antenna. The proposed antenna is analyzed using IE3D simulation software. The analysis of proposed structure is done by varying the dielectric constants and height of the substrate as well as gain and radiation pattern of the antenna is obtained. It observed that on varying the dielectric substrate the effect on proposed antenna is very effective.

In this paper, Microstrip patch antennas with rectangular and swastika shape of patch are designed and its performance parameters are compared with each other. Rectangular and Swastika shaped patch are considered in this paper with common rectangular ground plane. The antenna is simulated at 2.4 GHz using HFSS simulation software. This work mainly includes modification of antenna patch to improve the antenna parameters. The parameters of antenna such as Return loss, VSWR Bandwidth and radiation pattern are compared using simulation. The performance of Swastika shaped antenna was found to be better than rectangular shaped microstrip patch antenna with improved Return Loss, VSWR, Bandwidth and Radiation Pattern.

A dual-frequency and radiation pattern reconfigurable microstrip patch antenna for detecting a stationary as well as a non-stationary target is described. Six angular patches, that collectively form a circular shape, are used. All the six patches radiate one by one after a fixed interval of time and their feed controlling is done by six PIN diodes. The switching of PIN diodes is controlled by an embedded biasing network. This antenna provides radiation beam scanning characteristics. It gives the main lobe scanning at every 60o clockwise (or anticlockwise) continuously by applying a signal to patches one by one. The purpose of introducing the slot is to get the radiation pattern in the desired direction since by changing the length, width, and position of the slot, the direction of the radiation pattern can be controlled. The slotted antenna operates in a C band with two frequencies 4.21 GHz and 4.82 GHz and provides a radiation pattern, 90o apart from each other. The scanning rate of 0.6 deg/ms is obtained; however, the scanning rate can be changed with the help of ATMEGA 2560 microcontroller. This compact Microstrip patch antenna can be widely used for short-range applications i.e. ground surveillance radar, missile control, mobile battlefield surveillance for military and many other applications in a modern wireless communication system. The designed antenna along with the switching application will be able to track the stationary as well as a non-stationary target.

This chapter elaborates in detail on the microstrip patch antenna, which is widely utilized in the receivers of radio telescopes, as well as in the wireless communication industry today. Several models have been developed to analyze and design the patch antennas. The three most common ones are the transmission line model, the cavity model, and the Method of Moments model. Apart from this, the important parameters used in characterizing the patch antenna are also covered, which are its gain, efficiency, directivity, radiation pattern, return loss, bandwidth, and polarization. This is followed by the introduction of the radiation regions, which are basically classified as the Fresnel region and the Fraunhofer region. Finally, the dual-frequency microstrip patch antenna is introduced. Three popular approaches adopted for the design are orthogonal-mode polarization, multi-layer patching, and reactive loading.

This paper presents a short microstrip patch antenna and analyzes its characteristics in simulation and measured ways. The proposed antenna is meant to be used from 2.4 to 2.5 GHz at the resonant frequency of 2.45 GHz Industrial, Science, and Medical (ISM) spectrum. Besides, insert a diagonal slot in the main patch, and two cutting edges with V-slit gives the antenna to propagate a circular polarization pattern. The paper aims to start learning a simple C.P. patch antenna supported the basic concept of microstrip antenna theory. A single-feed C.P., truncated corners, and slit and slot methods are employed to model the antenna apart from its parametric study. The substrate material of the developed antenna is FR-4, and it's a relative permittivity of 4.4. The antenna incorporates a compact overall size of 0.389λ0 × 0.389λ0 × 0.013λ0, where λ0 is that the corresponding free-space wavelength at 2.45 GHz. FEKO has been used for not only designing the antenna model but also analyzing its performances. Simulated and measured results have reported that the antenna can work in ISM bands (2.42-2.5 GHz) with VSWR< 2, low realized gain, and the limited 3-dB axial ratio at 2.45 GHz.

Microstrip antenna is used in wide area of applications such as high speed vehicles, missiles, tanks and satellite communications. In these applications dielectric superstrate (or cover) is used above the square patch antenna for providing the protections from severe environmental conditions such as rain, snow, heat, and damage etc. The proposed square microstrip patch antenna is designed using coaxial probe feed technique and transmission line model and operated at center frequency of 2.40 GHz, which is lying in the S-band region. The proposed model is used in linear polarization applications. The square patch is fabricated on low loss dielectric substrate material having dielectric constant is 2.2 and loss tangent of the substrate material is 0.0009. Ansoft electromagnetic simulator software such as HFSS is used for simulating proposed model and studied the effect cover or superstrate on different parameters of square patch antenna. This paper mainly focuses on the performance of square patch antenna without superstrate, and with superstrate at different height of dielectric superstrate above the patch antenna. The result found of patch antenna without superstrate the bandwidth is 0.04GHz and gain is obtained 8.9 dB and 7.51 dB in azimuth and elevation respectively. The result observed of patch antenna with dielectric cover (or superstrate) at height H =0, the antenna performance characteristics are slightly degraded and also comparing the antenna with the bandwidth is decreased to 0.02GHz from 0.04 GHz and gain is decreases to 6.44 dB and 6.6 dB from 8.9 dB and 7.51 dB in both azimuth and elevation plane respectively. The decreased performance characteristics of antenna will be improved by varying height of the superstrate above the patch antenna.. At particular optimum height, the performance characteristics patch antenna will be almost same as the patch antenna without superstrates. The obtained simulated results good match with measurement results.

Abstract Microstrip antenna is an essential choice for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) applications of its light weight, low profile and easy to form antenna arrays. However, the design of microstrip patch antenna bandwidth is greatly affects by the dielectric substrate material (FR4). In this research, the bandwidth enhancement of MPA was designed by minimizing the dimension of Defected GP (DGP) in GP for Ultra Wide Band wireless applications. But, the antenna design complexity increases with the number of an operating frequency band. In this research, the MPA was designed as small as size of 10×13×1.6 mm and operates on frequency band between 3.1GHz to 10.6GHz for VSWR less than 2. The microstrip patch antenna was designed at 3.1GHz to 10.6GHz using High-Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. The simulation result shows that the proposed microstrip patch antenna obtained <-10dB of return loss from 3.1GHz to 10.6GHz throughout the frequency range. The measured result proves that the proposed microstrip patch antenna has better characteristics to fulfill the requirements of UWB applications.
