Aim:The main objective of this project is to enhance the Bandwidth of microstrip patch antenna by using an E-shaped slot on the patch and varying substrate thicknesses in comparison with the Rectangular patch antenna. Materials and Methods: The microstrip patch antenna with an E-shaped slot and with varying substrate thicknesses of four groups [1.2mm, 1.6mm, 1.8mm, 2.4mm] is used with a sample size of 40 in comparison with rectangular patch antenna of another group with sample size 10. Results: By using Altair Feko simulation software, the proposed antenna parameters such as Bandwidth and Gain are obtained. The results are Gain=9dB, Bandwidth=225MHz for 1.2mm, Bandwidth=250.1MHz at 1.6mm, Bandwidth=252MHz at 2.4mm substrate thicknesses and bandwidth of conventional Rectangular patch antenna of 1.6mm substrate thickness=243MHz. Attained Significance accuracy ratio p(<0.05). Conclusion: The bandwidth appears to be enhanced (12%) by varying the substrate thicknesses [1.2mm to 2.4mm] from 225MHz to 252MHz.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
