The microstrip antenna finds applications in varied and upcoming technologies because it offers low profile, narrow bandwidth, high gain, and compact antenna element. The microstrip antenna have biggest disadvantage of narrow bandwidth and poor impedance matching. To make microstrip antenna compatible with commercial applications, the bandwidth enhancement and impedance matching of such antenna...

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...

Microstrip antennas have been widely used for aerospace applications and in small portable wireless communication equipments because of their compactness, light-weight, low-profile, and relative ease of fabrication. The small size is an important requirement for portable applications. There are various types of microstrip patch configurations. In general, the size of a microstrip patch is about...

By loading properly arranged slots in an equilateraltriangular microstrip patch, a dual-frequency and broadband operations of a single-feed triangular microstrip antenna are presented. Details of the proposed dualfrequency and broadband designs are described and simulated results of nearand far-field parameters are presented and discussed.

A simple impedance matching technique for inset feed grooved microstrip patch antenna based on the concept of coplanar waveguide feed line has been developed and investigated for a printed antenna at X-Band frequency of 10GHz. The proposed technique has been used in the design of Linear Grooved Microstrip patch antenna array. The characteristics of the antenna are determined in terms of Return ...

Introduction: Ultra-high field transceiver coil array holds many advantages and unique capabilities over the conventional non-array volume transceiver coils such as B1 shimming/manipulating and parallel excitation for human studies. The transceiver array can be either an array of loops or an array of straight microstrip elements [1-3]. Usually the mutual coupling in such arrays is minimized by ...

In this paper, we propose a novel microstrip antenna for operating over a three frequency bands, covering the 2.4/5.2/5.8 GHz WLAN and 2.5/3.5/5.5GHz WiMAX bands. The proposed antenna occupies an area of 30 mm  40mm, when printed on FR4 substrate (εr=4.4, h=0.8mm). The antenna comprises of a triangular patch section, L-shaped parasitic elements on the edges of triangular patch and a 50Ω micros...

Abstract:In telecommunications, there are several types of microstrip antennas, the most common of which is microstrip patch antenna. Patch antennas are also relatively inexpensive to manufacture and design because of simple 2D physical geometry. In this paper Two L slits are introduced at the both edge of the patch to reduce the resonant frequency. The proposed antenna is developed to operate ...
