Abstract:

A double I slot microstrip patch antenna is designed and simulated in this paper. The proposed antenna is designed using Rogers RT/duriod substrate with dielectric constant 2.2 with microsrip line feed. The designed antenna works from the band 7.2GHz to 12GHz. This antenna can be used for wide band applications such as Radar, Satellite communication, biomedical application, Remote sensing etc. The performance of the designed antenna is explained in terms of return loss, resonance frequency, VSWR, radiation pattern and gain. The effect of adding slot on resonance frequency and bandwidth has been studied in this paper. Design and simulations of the antenna are implemented using High Frequency Structure Simulator Software (HFSS).

Keywords:

patch antenna, Radar, microstrip line feed, enhanced bandwidth, HFSS.
