A high-gain microstrip patch-type WiMAX antenna operating at 3.5 GHz has been designed with a parasitic radiator and a raised ground plane. Antenna design has been carried out through extensive three-dimensional electromagnetic simulations. The patch antenna itself provides a realized gain of about 3.6 dB at 3.5 GHz. When a parasitic radiator is placed on top of the patch antenna, the gain increases from about 3.6 dB to about 7.4 dB. The raised ground plane further enhances the gain by about 1.5 dB. Hence the overall gain improvement is about 5.3 dB without the need of a radio-frequency amplifier.

In this work, a broadband high gain frequency selective surface (FSS)-based microstrip patch antenna is proposed. The dimensions of the microstrip antenna and proposed FSS are [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. A broadband high gain reference antenna has been selected to improve antenna performance. The reference antenna offers 1.2[Formula: see text]GHz bandwidth with 6.03[Formula: see text]dBi peak gain. Some modifications have been done on the patch and ground plane to enhance the bandwidth and gain. The impedance bandwidth of 7.70[Formula: see text]GHz (3.42–11.12[Formula: see text]GHz) with 4.9 dBi peak gain is achieved by the microstrip antenna without FSS. The antenna performance is improved by using FSS beneath the antenna structure. The maximum impedance bandwidth of 7.70[Formula: see text]GHz (3.32–11.02[Formula: see text]GHz) and peak gain of 8.6[Formula: see text]dBi are achieved by the proposed antenna with FSS. Maximum co- and cross-polarization differences are 21[Formula: see text]dB. The simulation and measurement have been done using Ansoft Designer software and vector network analyzer. The measured results are in good parity with the simulated one.

A miniaturized high-gain (MHG) ultra-wideband (UWB) unidirectional monopole antenna with defected ground structure (DGS) is designed for ultra-wideband applications. The MHG antenna is printed on the FR4 substrate material with an overall size of 26.6-mm [Formula: see text] 29.3-mm [Formula: see text] 1.6-mm, which operates over the UWB frequency range and achieves the bandwidth between 3.1[Formula: see text]GHz and 10.6[Formula: see text]GHz. This high-gain unidirectional antenna exhibits a peak gain of 7.20[Formula: see text]dB with an efficiency of 95%. The compact antenna is a simple overlay design of circular and rectangular patches with the partial ground plane exhibiting high gain and better directivity. The overlay patch antenna acts as the radiator for wider bandwidth compared to the fundamental design of patch antenna and is matched to an SMA connector via 50[Formula: see text][Formula: see text] microstrip feed line. These simulated results are presented using HFSS software package. The designed antennas are fabricated and validated by using Agilent Vector Analyzer.

<span>A high beam steering antenna using HPND PIN Diode is proposed with a capability of steering its beam into three different directions -40 º, 0º and 40 º with respective switching condition. The reconfigurable parasitic antenna consists of a driven element and two reconfigurable parasitic elements, is designed with operating range of 9.5GHz. The parasitic elements act as reflectors or director depending on the switching conditions. Both parasitic elements are connected to ground plane via shorting pins. The reconfiguration is controlled by the two HPND PIN Diode switch that embeds to the parasitic element. An average gain value of 8dBi is achieved at all reconfiguration scenarios. All the simulated design has been carried out using CST software.</span>

This examination work is focused around planning and simulating another kind of inset feed Disc Shaped Microstrip Patch Antenna (DSMPA) with Inset feed and Defected ground plane (DGP). By presenting a round space at the focal point of the ground plane, improved attributes of Microstrip patch antenna can be accomplished. The proposed Disc Shaped Microstrip patch antenna is reverberating at 5 GHz. Simulation has been finished by utilizing reenactment programming HFSS version15. From recreation results, it discovers that our examined Disc Shaped Microstrip patch antenna yields better return loss of - 25.1 dB & VSWR estimation of 0.96 dB. The examined DSMPA is yielding a higher radiation efficiency of 77.20 %. The minimized size and higher radiation efficiency contrasted with rectangular Microstrip patch antenna makes it all the more generally helpful for satellite communications.

Patch antennas are compact, less complex, planar structures and therefore, widely used in small satellite missions for telecommand, data link, and intersatellite link, particularly in S- band and X- band. Improved performance of these patch antennas in terms of gain and compactness will di-rectly affect the communication efficiency of small satellite missions. Especially the coming IoT (Internet of Things) constellations require high gain and efficient antenna arrays. An optimization of single patch antenna elements is an important cornerstone for the missions. Therefore, the ef-fects of various antenna enhancement techniques, such as slotted ground plane, resistor and ca-pacitor integration, parasitic patch elements, are analyzed. These techniques were applied on a rectangular patch antenna with parameter variation to identify the optimal performances with respect to bandwidth, operating frequency, gain, polarization, and power flow. Finally, the techniques were combined to obtain an optimized antenna in terms of gain and compactness. The results were compared to a slotted reference antenna. For the scenario of a 2.4 GHz patch antenna, a gain optimization of 27 % (from 7.09 to 8.14 dBi) or size reduction of 52 % (from 96.04 to 46.2 cm²) could be achieved. Overall, our study revealed an effective way to increase the patch antenna performance, which can directly contribute to more efficient communication links and design of antenna arrays.
