Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) devices are often used to access the internet network, both for working and in information searching. Accessing the internet can be administered anywhere provided that the area is within the WiFi devices range. A WiFi device uses 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz operating frequencies. There were several methods employed in the previous studies so that an antenna design could work in two different frequencies, i.e., winding bowtie method, Sierpinski method, and double-circular method. This paper employed a simple method, the slit method. The objective of this paper is to discover a simple antenna model that works on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies. This paper employed a square patch microstrip antenna with a slit method. The dimensions of the designed square patch microstrip antenna were 42.03 mm × 27.13 mm × 0.035 mm. The antenna worked at 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequencies. The obtained simulation results after the optimization showed that the square patch microstrip antenna using the slit method acquired a value of S11 (return loss) of -10.15 dB at a frequency of 2.4 GHz and -37.315 dB at a frequency of 5 GHz.

Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) is the modern telecommunication technology nowadays being so widely used and developed at operating frequency of 2.4 GHz, that needs microstrip antenna as best suited supporting means for transmitting and receiving data signals as well at its wave transceiver subsystem.  The proposed antenna design were consists of four elements rectangular patch antenna with peripheral slits technique arranged in a linear array of 2x2 operating at the frequency of 2.4 GHz until 2.5 GHz. In addition to that, the feeding technique used in this research is microstrip fed line. The simulation from this research resulted in reducing the size of related antenna dimension up to 17% compared to that of four elements array without peripheral slits. It is also apparent that the bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 320 MHz (2.253 GHz–2.573 GHz) which is equivalent to bandwidth increase percentage of 13.07%, The simulation results in the center of frequency 2.448 GHz obtained return loss of -26.14 dB with a VSWR of 1.104. The measurement results obtained bandwidth of the proposed antenna is 150 MHz (2.424 GHz–2.574 GHz) which is equivalent to 12% increase of bandwidth percentage. The results of measurements process at the center of frequency 2.448 GHz obtained value of return loss of -16.88 dB with  VSWR of 1.304.

In this study, a coplanar waveguide-fed compact microstrip antenna design for applications operating at higher 5G bands was proposed. The antenna with the compact size of 8 x 12.2 mm2 on FR4 substrate, having the dielectric constant of 4.3 and the height of 1.55 mm, was considered. The dimensions of the radiating patch and ground plane were optimized with the use of artificial cooperative search (ACS) algorithm to provide the desired return loss performance of the designed antenna. The performance analysis was done by using full-wave electromagnetic package programs based on the method of moment (MoM) and the finite integration technique (FIT). The 10 dB bandwidth for return loss results obtained with the use of the computation methods show that the proposed antenna performs well for 5G applications operating in the 24.25 – 27.50 GHz, 26.50 – 29.50 GHz, 27.50 – 28.35 GHz and 37 – 40 GHz frequency bands.

Firstly, the development and principle of PIFA antenna in mobile phone are introduced, and the typical PIFA antenna design is analyzed. The PIFA antenna simulation is based on HFSS software. It is found that the high frequency bandwidth of this kind of antenna is very narrow. Then related parameters are optimized, by increasing the parasitic branch in high frequency band. Simulation results show that the return loss of PIFA antenna in high band is improved and the antenna can be expanded in high band, and matched in low band simultaneously.


A new approach to enhance the Front-To-Back Ratio (FTBR) of aninset fed microstrip patch antennabyentrenching the ground plane encircling the patch is described in this paper.By entrenching the groundplane around patch,backlobe of the antenna getssuppressed.The FTBRhas been improvedto a value of 48.25 dBi, which is very much higher compared to the FTBR of reference microstrip antenna 13.29 dBi

This paper presents a linear 1 × 2 “Ha ( )”–slot patch array microstrip antenna. The proposed design of an array microstrip antenna is intended for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) 2.4 GHz devices. From the previous research concerning the single patch “Ha ( )”–slot microstrip antenna, the gain that can be achieved is 5.77 dBi in simulation. This value is considered too small for an antenna to accommodate WLAN devices if compare to a Hertzian antenna. To enhance the gain of microstrip antenna, some methods can be considered using linear 1 × 2 patch array and T-Junction power divider circuit to have matching antenna impedance. The distances between two patches are one of the important steps to be considered in designing the patch array microstrip antenna. Thus, the minimum distance between the patch elements are calculated should be greater than λ/2 of the resonance frequency antenna. If the distance less than λ/2 electromagnetically coupled will occur, vice versa when it is to widen the dimension of the antenna will less efficient. Epoxy substrate Flame Resistant 4 (FR4) with dielectric constant 4.3 is used as the platform designed for the array antenna and it is analyzed using simulation software Computational Simulation Technology (CST) studio suite by which return loss, Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), and gain are calculated. The simulation result showed that the designed antenna achieve return loss (S11) -25.363 dB with VSWR 1.1 at the frequency 2.4 GHz, and the gain obtained from simulation is 8.96 dBi, which is greater than 64.4 % if compared to the previous one. The proposed antenna design shows that increasing the number of patches in the array can technically improve the gain of a microstrip antenna, which can cover a wider area if applied to WLAN devices

In this paper, a new ultrahigh frequency circularly polarized microstrip antenna using in RFID reader is proposed. The proposed antenna has a simple structure, it has non-symmetrical rectangular corner truncated square patch, ground plane and a probe feed. To achieve good circular polarization(CP) radiation characteristics, it uses air as the dielectric layer. Simulation results of a constructed prototype with the center operating frequency at 923 MHz showed that the antenna has a return loss S11 of about −24 dB, a gain level of about 9.48 dBi. The antenna has good impedance and radiation characteristics over the required bandwidth, 920-925 MHz (Chinese UHF RFID band).
