A Dual Band Reconfigurable Stacked Microstrip Antenna with Frequency Diversity for Satellite Links
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Dual band reconfigurable microstrip antenna with frequency diversity for satellite communication is proposed. In this paper a reconfigurable antenna with stacked structure is used. The two patches are arranged by two substrates i.e.. one R04003 dielectric substrate and another Rohacell Foam substrate with the dielectric constant 1.04 and loss tangent 0.0027. By varying the height of foam substrate dual band frequency diversity can be achieved. The simulated results shows that the antenna can be operated around 2 GHz (1.84 – 2.16 GHz) used in satellite applications.

A compact stacked Quasi-fractal microstrip antenna for RFID applications
In this paper, we propose a new compact quasi-fractal shaped microstrip antenna that consists of a hexagonal patch as the main radiator and a complementary stacked patch as the parasitic element. The overall surface of the proposed quasi-fractal patch is about 55% lower than the conventional hexagonal patch. Using of stacked technique, the gain reduction of compression technique is almost compe...

متن کاملReconfigurable microstrip patch antenna for WLAN Software Defined Radio applications
A reconfigurable microstrip patch antenna with RF pin diode switches is implemented for dual band of 2.4 GHz and 5.6 GHz WLAN Software Defined Radio (SDR) applications. For the dual band SDR system, the use of a single antenna with a wide bandwidth to cover both of the bands can be limiting for low power level signal applications due to wideband noise as well as changing radiation pattern at di...

متن کاملInvestigation of a Novel Dual Band Microstrip/Waveguide Hybrid Antenna Element
Microstrip antennas are low in profile and light in weight and they are now developed for many applications. The main difficulty of the microstrip antenna is its narrow bandwidth. Several modern applications like satellite communications, remote sensing and multi-function radar systems will find it useful if there is a dual band antenna operating from a single aperture. Some applications requir...
