Microstrip antennas are popular because of their low profile, light weight and low cost but narrow bandwidth and gain are the main disadvantages of this antenna. In this paper Multiband Octagonal Patch Antenna has been designed by ring slot technique for working in nine different frequencies presented in multi band C-band, X-band, Ku-band, K-band, Ka-band, Q-band and U-bands. Main applications of these bands are used in terrestrial microwave communications. In this research work, the performance of octagonal patch antenna operating at 7 different bands is analyzed. The Design methodology of the proposed research carried in 2 major modules. 1. Design of Single Octagonal Ring Slot antenna, 2. Design of Double Octagonal Ring Slot antenna. In the first design a single octagonal ring slot microstrip patch antenna is developed which resonates at six frequencies of five different frequency bands of C-band, Ku-band, K-band, Q-band and U-bands. In the second design a double octagonal ring slot microstrip patch antenna is developed which resonates at nine frequencies of six different frequency bands of X-band, Ku-band, K-band, Ka-band, Q-band and U-bands. The proposed antenna has been simulated by HFSS and measured by combinational analyzer.


A novel stacked double U, angular ring shaped MIMO antenna is designed using DGS, and a pair of balanced shorting pin is proposed for C, X, and K-band applications. The aim of this design is to enhance the bandwidth by using different techniques in a compact MSA. The proposed antenna is designed on an FR4 substrate with permittivity of 4.4 is used in this design with dimension of 10×10 mm2 with two-microstrip line and one coaxial feed as a feeding mechanism. Two asymmetrical antennas of FR4 substrate are stacked with an air gap of thickness 1.6mm that exhibits a low correlation coefficient; low mutual coupling and refection coefficient is below-25 dB. The antenna is simulated through HFSS software 13.0 version shows Operates at UWB of frequency range 6.17-9.3, 18.1-18.7 GHz with maximum radiation efficiency of 83%.
