Dual Band Slotted Ground Microstrip Antenna for Location Tracking Systems

摘要

Slotted ground microstrip antenna can be devised to radiate electromagnetic waves in the allotted bands for location tracking (LT) applications. The signal is fed through a microstrip feed line towards the centre of the substrate. The rectangular slots placed in the ground plane are carefully designed to propagate linearly polarized signals in two bands viz. 4.66 - 4.77 GHz (the band I) and 6.13 - 6.67 GHz (the band II). The antenna produces a fair gain in both the bands.
