Effect of Metamaterial Cells Array on a Microstrip Patch Antenna Design

an infinite planar array of rectangular microstrip patch antenna analysis

the methods which are used to analyze microstrip antennas, are divited into three categories: empirical methods, semi-empirical methods and full-wave analysis. empirical and semi-empirical methods are generally based on some fundamental simplifying assumptions about quality of surface current distribution and substrate thickness. thses simplificatioms cause low accuracy in field evaluation. ful...

Design of Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antenna Array

In this paper the rectangular microstrip patch antenna arrays has been designed for S, C and X-band application by using the IE3D simulator. Roger RT/duroid material with dielectric constant 2.2 and height 1.588 has been used as a substrate material. Microstrip inset line feed has been used for feeding the rectangular patch antenna. Here 1x2 and 1x4 patch antenna array has been designed using s...

Design of a Single Negative Metamaterial based Microstrip Patch Antenna

This paper describes the design and simulation of the new Ɛ negative metamaterial unit cell structure and then the unit cells are combined to form 3D array which use as metamaterial cover with a single microstrip patch antenna. The new Ɛ negative metamaterial is based on the ELC resonator structure, which is used for obtaining the negative value of permittivity and positive value of permeabilit...

A Survey on Microstrip Patch Antenna using Metamaterial

Microstrip patch antennas are used for mobile phone applications due to their small size, low cost, ease of production etc. The MSA has proved to be an excellent radiator for many applications because of its several advantages, but it also has some disadvantages. Lower gain and narrow bandwidth are the major drawbacks of a patch antenna. In this paper, a survey on the existing solutions for the...
