This paper presents rectangular, fractal and proximity coupled patch antennas on a two layer substrate with the air-gap. The antennas have been designed on εr = 2.2, h = 1.5748 mm with initial dimension 49 x 41.01 mm of simple rectangular patch. The simulated resonant frequency of rectangular patch is 2.42 GHz. The fractal antenna and the Fractal antenna with Layered Stack shows the multi band ...

A microstrip patch antenna is designed that have metallic ring coplanar to radiation patch for gain enhancement is proposed. The design forces conversion of the surface wave energy into the space wave energy by the scattering of surface waves from metallic ring. The metallic ring is placed around the metal patch at a distance of d1 from the edges of the metal patch and width of metallic ring is...

A Comparative study of rectangular and circular shape microstrip fed patch antennas for bluetooth application is presented in this paper. The resonance frequency is chosen at 2.45 GHz which is suitable for industrial scientific and medical (ISM) band applications. Computer Simulation Technology (CST) microwave studio is used as the software environment to design and compare the performance of t...

OBJECTIVES Management of complete atrioventricular (AV) septal defect (CAVSD) with a large ventricular component (>1 cm) remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of the one-and-a-half patch technique in repairing this lesion. METHODS This was a retrospective review of patients undergoing surgical repair of CAVSD with a large ventricular component (>1 cm)....

Three hexagonal patch antennas are designed for circular polarization and experimentally validated. These antennas are labeled; simple hexagonal patch, hexagonal patch with slotted ground and hexagonal patch with parasitic element. The measured impedance bandwidths of the three antennas are 2% for the simple patch, 5.2% for the patch with slotted ground and 6.35% for the antenna with parasitic ...
