L-shaped Slot Loaded Semicircular Patch Antenna for Wideband Operation

In this paper, a dual frequency resonance antenna is analysed by introducing L-shaped slot in a semi circular patch, different parametric studies have allows and the results in terms of return loss and radiation pattern are given. The results show that dual wide bands are achieved and a better impedance matching for the upper and lower resonance are obtained. Also, it is observed that various antenna parameters are obtained as a function of frequency for different value of slot length and width; it is easy to adjust the upper and the lower band by varying these different antenna parameters. The coaxial feed is used to excite the patch antenna. Theoretical results using Matlab are compared with the simulated results obtained from Ansoft HFSS software and shown to be in good agreement.
