Microstrip antennas (MAS) are very useful antenna where low profile antennas are required. They are most popular due to their small size, low cost, light weight. The first aperture coupled microstrip antenna was introduced in 1985 by D M Pozar. Aperture coupled antenna is a particular antenna with high gain and wide bandwidth. This paper presents aperture coupled stacked patch antenna using air...

Some useful features of microstrip patch antennas are low profile, low weight and easy fabrication. However this type of antenna suffers from having a low gain, caused by propagation surface waves. In this paper, a new near zero refractive index metamaterial (MTM) unit cell is designed and fabricated as a superstrate over a Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antennas (RMPA). In order to obtain a maxi...

a new multiple c- slotted microstrip patch antenna is proposed.  a patch antenna is a wide-beam narrowband antenna. microstrip patch antenna consist of a very thin metallic strip (patch) placed a small fraction of a wavelength above a ground plane. the patch can be designed in any possible shape and normally made by conducting material copper or gold. this paper presents design of a c- slotted ...

This paper presents the electrically small U-slot loaded circular microstrip patch antenna with Complementary Split Ring Resonator (CSRR). The technique of U slot loading is used for operating antenna in dual band and CSRR technique to make antenna compact and CSRR for compactness is used. The simple circular patch antenna resonates at 5. 71 GHz with return loss of -11. 38 dB. The proposed ante...

A study on the V-shaped microstrip patch antenna for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication system based on the antenna orientation is performed. First the microstrip patch antenna operating at 2.45 GHz is calculated and simulated. Next, multiple elements of antennas for MIMO system is simulated and discussed. V-shaped with 45 degree slanted inward and outward is studied. The anten...

Introduction: Short-circuited microstrip patch antennas, or PIFAs, can be used as directive internal handset antennas in various communication systems. They provide advantages over traditional external whip and helix antennas in terms of increased total efficiency (when the handset is near the user’s head), decreased radiation towards the user, and increased mechanical reliability. The main dis...
