Design and Analysis of a Novel Multiband Microstrip Patch Antenna for Wireless Communication

摘要

This paper presents the design of a multiband microstrip patch antenna operating at seven frequencies i.e. 2.4 (Lower Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX), 5.3 (Wireless local area network (WLAN)) and 9.1-10.2 GHz (X-band) frequency bands. The radiating element of the antenna is backed by a 1.6 mm thicker FR4-epoxy substrate having a dielectric constant of 4.4 and loss tangent δ = 0.02. The antenna is fed through a 50 Ω microstrip line. The shape of the radiating element is derived from the basic rectangular shape by inserting a circular hole inside a rectangular patch antenna. During simulation, the antenna exhibit hexa band with band width S11收起
