Various broadband multi-resonator gap-coupled configurations of equilateral triangular microstrip antenna and its compact variation, half equilateral triangular microstrip antenna, are proposed. The broadband proximity fed equilateral triangular microstrip antenna yields bandwidth of more than 650 MHz (~44%), whereas equivalent proximity fed gap-coupled half equilateral triangular microstrip an...

In this work, a probe fed microstrip antenna design for the implementation of two dimensional arrays with individually fed radiating elements is presented. The performance of the antenna element, both isolated and in a 4× 4 fixed array topology, is analysed using ADS and HFSS simulation software. Prototypes of the antenna element and of the array are manufactured and measured for the experiment...

A Microstrip Conformal Hexagonal Slot Patch Antenna fed by 50Ω microstrip line for various applications is presented in this paper. The strip loaded proposed antenna is fed through microstrip line to achieve proper impedance matching. Simulated results on High Frequency Structure Simulator software version 13 (HFSS 13) and CST10 are compared for FR4 – epoxiy substrate at different central angle...

The microstrip antennas area has seen some inventive work in recent years and is now one of the most dynamic fields of antenna theory. A novel and simple wideband monopole antenna is presented printed on a single dielectric substrate which is fed by a 50 ohm microstrip line having a low-profile antenna structure with two parallel s-shaped meandered line of same size. This antenna is fed by a co...

The search for a simple broadband, multiband antenna with acceptable SWR over the entire 80/75-meter band continued with the publication of the article by Witt, AI1H, in April 1989 QST. This inspired author Belrose, VE2CV, to reopen his files on the "Windom antenna," or, more properly, the off-center-fed dipole. Particularly since the opening of the 10, 18 and 24-MHz bands, this time-honored, s...

A simple, compact, slot loaded stacked wideband microstrip patch antenna is presented in this communication. The radiating element consists of a rectangular patch with a Tshaped slot and is fed by a 50 Ω microstrip line. The proposed antenna is simulated using IE3D software, 12.32 version of Zeland. The simulated results show that the antenna can exhibit wideband characteristics. The impedance ...

In this paper a novel differentially fed Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) antenna in low-temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) technology to be used in the 60 GHz band for integrated RF front-ends is presented. The antenna is based on the aperture stacked patch fed via H-shaped aperture to achieve more than 10 GHz operational bandwidth. The antenna is fed by a parallel-wire transmission line which enables ...

In this paper, a printed hexagonal wide slot antenna, fed by a microstrip line with fork like tuning stub for bandwidth enhancement is proposed and experimentally investigated. The impedance, radiation and gain characteristics of this antenna are studied. Simulation and experimental results indicate that a 1.5:1 VSWR bandwidth, of about 1 GHz and 2:1 VSWR bandwidth of 1.34 GHz is achieved at op...

In our paper, an inset-fed microstrip patch antenna has been designed and the dependency of resonant frequency on the notch gap and the feed line geometry has been studied. Our study suggests that a narrower notch resulted in better impedance matching. A design rule has also been formulated and presented the performance of the proposed design.
