A four-band microstrip antenna with a U-shaped slot and two straight slots is proposed in this study. As the width of the dielectric substrate layer is extended, the frequency bands and antenna gain are observed to rise. In this current study, the suggested antenna is intended for using in wireless devices operating at frequencies between 5 GHz to 9 GHz.

The propagation of surface waves in the microstrip patch antenna proves to be proves to serious hindrance to radiation mechanism of the antenna. The periodic arrangement of shorting pins is embedded in the dielectric substrate at specific location to enhance the gain by around 4-5dB. The slotted perturbations have been done for achieving tri-band characteristics. The antenna is suitable for operation at three resonant frequency bands centered at 2.2421 GHz, 5.7632GHz and 7.7633GHz, which makes it suitable for WLAN applications.

This work builds a metamaterial (MTM) superstrate loaded on a patch of microstrip antenna for wireless communications. The MTM superstrate is made up of four G-shaped resonators on FR-4 substrate with a relative permittivity of 4.4 and has a total area of (8×16) mm2, and is higher than the patch. The MTM superstrate increases antenna gain while also raising the input reflection coefficient. When it is 9 mm above the patch, the gain increased from 3.28 dB to 6.02 dB, and when it is 7 mm above the patch, the input reflection coefficient was enhanced from -31.217 dB to -45.8 dB. When the MTM superstrate loaded antenna was compared to the traditional unloaded antenna, it was discovered that metamaterials have a lot of potential for improving antenna performance.

Organic coverlays are required to protect microstrip circuits in most applications. The presence of coverlay can potentially influence the performance of microstrip antennas. This paper describes the qualification of polyimide based coverlays for microstrip antennas both in 900 MHz and 2.50 GHz frequency bands. An Inverted F-shaped antenna fabricated on FR-4 dielectric is used as the test vehicle and two different coverlay materials are tested with respect to key parameters like resonant frequency, S11 bandwidth, antenna gain, frequency detuning, and radiation pattern. The data presented in this paper clearly indicates polyimide materials are well suited to cover microstrip antenna circuits with minimal impact on performance.

A microstrip patch antenna is designed for a wearable antenna. The performance of microstrip patch antenna loaded with reactive impedance surface (RIS) is described in terms of gain, bandwidth and return loss. The antenna is investigated in two conditions which are conventional microstrip antenna with RIS and without RIS. The designed antenna is also aimed at size reduction therefore it will be suitable for a wearable application. This antenna which is made fully using textile and it is designed for operation in the 2.45 GHz band. The performance of microstrip patch antenna loaded with RIS is described in terms of gain, bandwidth, return loss and radiation pattern. The antenna designed with RIS operates at 2.45 GHz. Bandwidth enhancement is achieved with RIS where the designed antenna can cater frequency from 2.4 GHz to 3 GHz. A gain enhancement is achieved of 20% is achieved compared with the conventional patch antenna. Although the size of the patch is reduced with the introduction of RIS, the overall size of the antenna with the substrate is almost similar to the conventional patch antenna. However, the performance of the antenna is greatly enhanced with the use of RIS.

This research presents a new idea in the use of wireless communication antennas: it uses a multi-layered array of cells called a superstrate multi-layer metasurface (MTM) and is placed in front of a patch of microstrip antenna to absorb surface waves and prevent them from passing through the insulating material, which reduces the permeability of the insulator and thus improves the Antenna properties, The proposed hexagonal cell with resonators is placed on the flame resistant (FR4) substrate, with a relative permittivity of 4.3 and an area (14×14) mm2 . It was tested when the metasurface layer is 4 mm in front of the patch and the distance between the metasurface layers is 2 mm. The optimum distances were calculated by the sweep parameter, and the improved antenna gain and the input reflection coefficient were obtained together. (S11) has been improved from -31.217 to -38.338 dB and, the gain from 3.28 dB to 6.554 dB.


The cross slot loaded patch antenna with inset feed is designed and fabricated on FR4 substrate to get deca band. This proposed antenna consists of a cross slot on a rectangular patch with inset feeding, on a dielectric substrate. The simulated results of proposed antenna have ten resonating frequencies (2.30, 3.90, 5.30, 6.10, 8.70, 10.0, 12.9, 14.10,16.20, 19.0 GHz) while measured results of proposed antenna have eleven resonating frequencies (2.3089, 4.1079, 5.3073, 6.2069, 8.8056, 10.1050, 11.8041, 12.5038,14.3028, 16.1019, 19.1004 GHz). The frequency bands are useful for S band, C band, X band, Ku band, K band and for LTE applications. Frequency bands like 2.30, 5.30, 8.70 can be useful for LTE applications while other frequency bands can be used for different applications such as WIFI, WiMAX, satellite communication, radar communication etc. The simulation for desired antenna is performed with the help of software HFSS.

The purpose of the article is to carry out mathematical modeling of the main characteristics and parameters of a microstrip antenna, the dielectric substrate of which is created from a domestic ceramic sample and to substantiate the use of a microstrip antenna as a transmitting and receiving antenna in a radio altimeter. It is shown that a microstrip antenna on a ceramic material substrate with a relative permittivity ε = 9.6 and a thickness of 0.2 mm has good electrical parameters in the frequency range of 31.5–33.5 GHz. Including the width of the antenna radiation pattern at the level of –3 dB is 12.5 degrees in the horizontal plane and 26.7 degrees in the vertical plane. In this case, the antenna gain is 17 dB and the level of the first side lobe is –20 dB relative to the main antenna lobe.

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.

Microstrip patch antenna is attractive for various applications due to its easy fabrication, low cost and small size. It simply comprises of a radiating patch and ground plane that are separated by a dielectric substrate. However, the resonance bandwidth of the microstrip antenna is still an issue that needs to be considered in research. This paper aims to enhance the bandwidth of a microstrip antenna or introduce more resonant frequencies within the Super High Frequency (SHF) band. The paper demonstrates empirical results for circular-shaped patch antenna using the High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS). It begins by investigating different patch sizes and substrate materials, so that an optimal preliminary design is introduced. Then, different slot shapes are inserted into the patch for significant enhancement of the resonance characteristics. As a result, new ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna designs are presented with bandwidth results reaching 15.5 GHz within the C, X, Ku and K bands. Also, new multiband antenna designs are presented with improved reflection valleys in the Ku, K and Ka bands.
