“…In microstrip line feeding there are two configurations are used in which the feed is attached to the bottom edge of patch in one type, and in another type of configuration, the patch is cut out to the point where impedance matching is good and feed attached to the patch at that point. This configuration is termed as inset feed [6][7]. The MPA with inset and microstrip line feeding is shown in figure 2.…”

Abstract: Conventional Microstrip Patch Antenna's (MPA) are in small in size, but their gain is quite low for most applications. Long distance communication requires high gain antennas. For conventional applications that require high gain mostly depends on parabolic antennas and arrays. Manufacturing parabolic antennas became complex at high frequencies because of its bent geometry. Microstrip Patch Antennas are low profile, low cost, they come with ease of fabrication and results in high beam scanwidth and high gain when they were used as an array configuration. In this paper, square and circular shaped Microstrip Patch Antennas are excited with inset feed are analyzed to determine which shape of antenna works well at the Ku (12-18GHz) range of frequency. Return loss, VSWR, gain, and directivity parameters are considered to analyze the above configurations. CST studio suite tool was used to simulate the configurations.

“…Patch of the antenna is a thin metallic strip placed on the ground plane where the thickness of the metallic strip is confined by t <<λ 0 and the height is restricted by 0.000330 < h < 0.0530 to reduce the fringing effect and as analyzed the range of dielectric constants are usually high i.e. in the range of 2.2 < ε r <12 [7][8].…”

The recent developments in the era of low-cost and compact communication systems have largely been due to the advent of small weight and size antennas that are capable of giving good output characteristics over a large frequency range. Microstrip patch antenna has become very famous and has attracted much attention towards the research because of these reasons. In this paper, the comparison of three widely popular designs of microstrip patch antennas has been done. Designing begins with the design of patches and then its analysis. Rectangular, square and hexagonal micro strip patch antennas are analyzed using HFSS and a comparison is made between them. In addition to low computational complexity, enhanced connectivity and high speed, modern wireless communication networks also offer advantages such as low profile structures, lightweight, gain must be high and compact size that assures reliability, mobility, and good efficiency. The compact design of patch antennas is due to conventional micro-strip fabrication technique.

“…Microstrip patch antennas are transmitting and receiving antennaswith numerous applications in different fields such as satellite communication, radar, remote sensing, GPS receivers and other mass-produced wireless products. Microstrip patch antennas are popular due to their attractive features, such as compactness, low profile planar structure, light weight, and compatibility with integrated circuits [1][2][3][4].In spite of, narrow bandwidth is a considerable problem of microstrip patch antennas that restricts its applications. There are various bandwidth enhancement techniques but the simplest one is the loading of different shape and size of slots and notches on the patch or in the ground plane [5].…”
