scholarly journals Defected Ground Micro strip Patch Antenna For WLAN applications

In this paper, a microstrip rectangular patch antenna (MRPA) with defect in ground in terms of reduction in dimension has been simulated, tested and analyze for multiband wireless applications. The defect (reduction in size) has been introduced to study the grounding effect in patch antennas for four configuration namely full ground, quarter ground, half ground right and half ground left antennas. After the comparison of simulated results of all four structures, the proposed better performed antenna with 23.815mm x 41 mm x 1.6mm dimension has been fabricated and tested. It operates in wide bandwidth from 2.5 GHz to 9.2 GHz suited for S band requirements which covers many wireless applications like Wifi, WLAN and WiMax. The experiment results shows that the proposed antenna has lower group delay and loss, ideal VSWR less than 1.5, impedance nearer to ideal 50 ohm and gain of 4.3 dBi. There is very good agreement between the simulated and tested results.

The following is an abstract of the paper, the mirror image design parameters and effective results for an antenna with a rectangular microstrip overlay using IE3D software is described that outcomes of the simulations and designs are displayed. The probe feed approach was used to generate the microstrip patch pattern. Such patch antennas have been investigated due to their large bandwidth and gain. This antenna is fabricated on an FR-4 epoxy substrate. This antenna’s performance and results are also matched to a standard rectangular patch antenna. Variables are utilized to improve the antenna’s simulation results are as position, space, length, and width of different mirror images T and I shaped antenna slots. The measured results from the simulated design show that the designed construction resonates at various closely separated frequencies that are within the frequency band allotment for wireless applications. At resonance frequencies of 2GHz to 3GHz, the bandwidth and return loss are significantly enhanced.

In this paper, a novel circular slotted rectangular patch antenna with three triangle shape Defected Ground Structure (DGS) has been proposed. Radiating patch is made by cutting circular slots of radius 3 mm from the three sides and center of the conventional rectangular patch structure and three triangle shape defects are presented on the ground layer. The size of the proposed antenna is 38 X 25 mm2. Optimization is performed and simulation results have been obtained using Empire XCcel 5.51 software. Thus, a miniaturized antenna is designed which has three impedance bandwidths of 0.957 GHz,  0.779 GHz, 0.665 GHz with resonant frequencies at 3.33 GHz, 6.97 GHz and 8.59 GHz and the corresponding return loss at the three resonant frequencies are -40 dB, -43 dB and -38.71 dB respectively. A prototype is also fabricated and tested. Fine agreement between the measured and simulated results has been obtained. It has been observed that introducing three triangle shape defects on the ground plane results in increased bandwidth, less return loss, good radiation pattern and better impedance matching over the required operating bands which can be used for wireless applications and future 5G applications.

In this paper, a low cross-polarization improved-gain rectangular patch antenna is presented. A patch-ground shorting pin with defected patch structure (DPS) is introduced to suppress the cross-polarization level. A High Reflective Frequency Selective Surface (HRFSS) superstrate is designed and placed over the proposed antenna at an optimized position to intensify the gain. To characterize the unit-cell of the superstrate, its transmission characteristics are extracted and discussed. Integration of the superstrate achieves a beam contraction resulting in a gain enhancement to 10.65 dBi. The proposed antenna has perfect broadside radiation with a cross-polarization level of below −30 dB in the entire half power beamwidth. The prototype of the antenna exhibits good agreement between experimental and simulated results.

This is the first report on novel mushroom-type electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structures, consisting of fractal periodic elements, used for enhancing the gain of microstrip patch antennas. Using CST Microwave studio the performance of rectangular patch antenna has been examined on proposed fractal EBG substrates. It is found that fractal EBGs are more effective in suppressing surface wave thus resulting in higher gain. The gain of rectangular patch has been improved from 6.88 to 10.67 dBi. The proposed fractal EBG will open new avenues for the design and development of variety of high-frequency components and devices with enhanced performance.

A coplanar waveguide- (CPW-) fed compact wideband defected structure shaped microstrip antenna is proposed for wireless applications. Defected structure is produced by cutting theUshape antenna in the form of two-sided T shape. The proposed antenna consists of two-sidedTshape strip as compared to usual monopole patch antenna for minimizing the height of the antenna. The large space around the radiator is fully utilized as the ground is on the same plane as of radiator. Microstrip line feed is used to excite the proposed antenna placed on an FR4 substrate (dielectric constantεr=4.4). The antenna is practically fabricated and simulated. Simulated results of the proposed antenna have been obtained by using Ansoft High-Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. These results are compared with measured results by using network analyzer. Measured result shows good agreement with the simulated results. It is observed that the proposed antenna shows a wideband from 2.96 GHz to 7.95 GHz with three bands atf1=3.23 GHz,f2=4.93 GHz, andf3=7.04 GHz.

Abstract We propose simple designs of compact patch antennas with bandwidth enhancement. Firstly, an inverted “L” strip is loaded onto the corner of one radiating patch edge to create an additional resonant mode which can be combined with that one of the conventional patch to enhance the operating bandwidth. Secondly, the “L” strip is replaced by inverted “T” strip to improve further the bandwidth by creating two adjustable resonant modes. The two proposed patch antennas have the particularity of enhancing the bandwidth significantly without increasing their profile and their overall sizes. Two antenna prototypes are fabricated and tested. Measurements reveal that the patch antenna loaded with “L” strip has stable radiation characteristics with 5.2 times enhancement in the relative bandwidth compared with a conventional patch antenna. The antenna loaded with inverted “T” strip has wider bandwidth (6.25 times wider than the conventional patch) and covers the operating band 5.07–5.89 GHz (15%) with measured peak gain and peak efficiency of 6.25 dBi and 78%, respectively. The proposed antennas are easy to fabricate, have a low-profile, and exhibit good performances which make them good candidates to use in real wireless applications.

This paper presents different reconfigurable antennas with frequency, polarization, and pattern diversities. All the antennas have a very simple, novel, and compact structures, which are used for different wireless communication applications. These antennas employ switching for obtaining different reconfigurations. At first, an E-shaped antenna is designed for multi-band frequency reconfigurability. Second, circular and rectangular-shaped patch antennas are designed for achieving diversity in polarization. At last, a pattern reconfigurable antenna is designed with multiport excitation. These antenna performances are analyzed using various parameters such as return loss, radiation pattern, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and gain. The prototypes of the antennas are fabricated and measured results along with simulated ones are presented. Both the results are in good agreement.


This paper present the brief view to design of a microstrip rectangular patch antenna. Microstrip patch antennas are used because of configuration such as low profile, conformal, light weight, and easy fabrication. The linear polarization and circularly polarization of microstrip patch antennas have attracted more attention recently. These antennas are significant due to their ability to improve the benefits of microwave imaging application. The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) has approved the frequency limit for narrowband and wideband antenna. One of the advantage of the narrow band technology is the design of feasible compact conformal antennas. Therefore a compact miniaturized microstrip rectangular patch antenna has been proposed to design for microwave imaging application. The miniaturization of microstrip patch antenna has been done to obtain the better narrow bandwidth, return loss and Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR). Ultra Wide Band (UWB) is achieved by using certain techniques which is used for expansion of bandwidth. The rectangular patch antenna with a 50Ωmicrostrip feed is fabricated on the FR4 substrate.


In this paper, a rectangular patch antenna with slits for dual band capabilities is presented. The suggested antenna works for two frequencies which are at 2.5 GHz and 5.1 GHz. The first operating frequency is in the band of 2.3 to 2.7GHz with -16.8dB reflection coefficient at 2.5GHz resonating frequency, whereas the second band is 4.6 to 5.5GHz with -29.2dB reflection coefficient at 5.1GHz resonating frequency. The simulation results exhibit that, the suggested antenna works for dual band frequency having impedance bandwidth of 482 and 844 MHz respectively. The gain is observed as 2.9 dBi and 4.2 dBi of respective bands. The first frequency band can be used for Industrial, Scientific and Medical(ISM) applications and second frequency band can be used for C-band applications.
