ABSTRACT: In this paper we have investigated the effect of cavity diameter and wall height on resonance and radiation characteristics of a circular microstrip patch antenna. Experiments were conducted using a fabricated prototype placed inside a cylindrical cavity. The results were compared and verified with simulated data obtained using an electromagnetic simulator. About 9.6 to 10.5 dBi peak gain was obtained from measured and simulated data

ABSTRACT: A new compact dual-band, dual-polarized microstrip antenna is presented. 7'iris antenna resonates at two frequencies with different polarizations: a linearly polarized one for terrestrial communication, and a circularly polarized one for satellite mobile communication. This antenna also provides an area reduction of 70% compared to a standard rectangular patch antenna

ABSTRACT: compact microstrip antenna integrated with an amplifier having an area reduction of 70%, compared to the standard circular microstrip patch antenna, is presented. The antenna also provides an enhanced gain of 10-dB more than its passive counter part. The measured 2:1 VSWR band width is -4% at 790 MHz, which is 2.5 times larger than that of the passive microstrip antenna

ABSTRACT: A new microstrip antenna geometry with considerable reduction in size, with similar radiation characteristics to those of an equivalent rectangular patch antenna is proposed. A relationship has been suggested for fmding out the resonant frequency of the new geometry, and its validity has been established by the experimental results. Without increasing the aperture area, this geometry also offers a facility for considerably reducing the resonant frequency compared to conventional patches.

ABSTRACT: Electromagnetic scattering behaviour of a superstrate loaded metallo– dielectric structure based on Sierpinski carpet fractal geometry is reported. The results indicate that the frequency at which backscattering is minimum can be tuned by varying the thickness of the superstrate. A reduction in backscattered power of 44 dB is obtained simultaneously for both TE and TM polarisations of the incident field.

ABSTRACT: A novel dual frequency dual-polarized square microstrip patch antenna embedded with a slot is presented. The proposed antenna offers tunability of the frequency ratio between the two frequencies by adjusting the slot dimensions. This configuration also provides a size reduction up to -51 and 35% for the two modes as compared to a square micro strip patch antenna

ABSTRACT: An arrow-shaped microstrip antenna with a pair of narrow slots embedded near the non-radiating edges gives wide impedance bandwidth. The experimental and simulated (!E3D) results show that antenna bandwidth is -3.5 times that of a conventional patch with the added advantage of reduced antenna size. The radiation characteristics are found to he uniform throughout the operating band

ABSTRACT: A dual-port microstrip antenna with a crescent shaped patch with excellent isolation betwecn the ports has been reportcd [I]. Since circular-sided geometries are inore compact than rectangular oncs, thcy find morc applications in microstrip arrays. The crcscent shaped antenna geometry [ I ] provides greater area rcductioii compared to other circular sided patches for broadband operation [2]. In this Lctter, formulac for calculating thc TM, I and TMZI mode resonant frequencies of this microstrip antenna, obtained by modifying the equations of a standard circular patch [3] are presentcd. Thcorctical results are compared with experimental observations aid the validity of the computation is established.

ABSTRACT: Dual frequency operation is achieved from a compact microstrip antenna by loading a pair of narrow slots close to its radiating edges. The two frequencies have parallel polarization planes and similar radiation characteristics. The ratio between the two operating frequencies can be tuned in the range (1.14-1. 24), which is much smaller than that of similar designs. The above excellent radiation characteristics are achieved along with an area reduction of - 75% compared to the standard rectangular patch

ABSTRACT: A novel dual frequency design of a square microstrip antenna coaxially fed along the diagonal with a chip capacitor mounted at the bottom of the stub is introduced. This design provides enhanced area reduction and good cross-polarization levels. The antenna design can be used as a compact antenna system where limited size is a major requirement. The details of the antenna design and experimental results are presented

ABSTRACT: A microstrip antenna with large bandwidth is developed using a parasitic technique . Compared to the available wide-baud antennas,the proposed antenna structure is very compact and gives a lessdistorted radiation pattern with frequency . An impedance bandwidth,eight times that of a conventional patch antenna of the same size, Isachieved. The concept of coupled microstrip line model Is extended fortheoretical interpretation of the impedance loci
