This paper reports a new design of broadband monopole patch antenna. The proposed antenna possess corner truncated rectangular patch with slits and defected ground structure, these modifications considerably improves the impedance bandwidth to 41.29% over a wideband (5.1–7.59 GHz). The design is appropriate for wireless communication including WLAN IEEE 802.11 g/a (5.15–5.35 GHz and 5.725–5.825 GHz) and C Band (4–8 GHz) applications. An antenna prototype is fabricated using FR-4 with an electrical permittivity of 4.4. Experimental and numerical simulations of antenna’s radiation characteristic are also reported and exhibits good concurrence.

“…Microstrip antennas are also preferred because of its suitability for production in plastic or flexible technology. 4,5 In antenna design, the impedance matching is also a challenging step for obtaining optimum performance parameters such as return loss, efficiency, and gain. The impedance matching at a single frequency (eg, quarter wavelength feedline) is relatively simple.…”

This study presents a modeling of a new reconfigurable patch antenna with equivalent lumped circuit. Instead of intuitive approaches, including structural changes used in the literature, the proposed reconfigurable antenna design is based on minimum tuning effort using only capacitance adjustments. The proposed design resolves impedance mismatch problem, which occurs due to the nature of using several frequencies by only capacitance adjustments rather than physical structure adjustments. Reconfigurable patch antenna for 2.45 GHz (Wi‐Fi), 3.6 GHz (Wi‐max and 5G), 5.4 GHz (WLAN and 5G) was considered for novel design strategy. A complete equivalent circuit model is configured and validated through AWR software. Full wave analysis of the proposed antenna is performed using CST software. A prototype of the proposed antenna is also fabricated on a FR4 substrate with the dimensions of 48.19 x 38.36 x 1.53 mm3 and measured to validate the full wave analysis and circuit theory solution results. It is shown that the equivalent circuit model, full wave analysis, and measurement results are in good agreement.

“…Microstrip patch antennas have been extensively considered by researchers in recent decades due to their small structure, simple fabrication, low weight, and simplicity of integration with printed circuit elements [1][2][3]. With the development of modern communication systems in recent years, expansive studies have been conducted to increase the bandwidth of microstrip patch antennas along with characteristics such as low profile and cross polarization [3,4].…”

A novel wideband microstrip patch antenna with nonuniform transmission line feed is presented using model predictive control. Nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) is used to achieve a nonuniform transmission line that matches with the microstrip patch antenna. The transmission line is extended using cosine expansion with the impedance differential equation then being used as the dynamic NMPC equation to find the unknown coefficients of that cosine expansion. The transmission line is designed such that the impedance of the input port matches the impedance of the microstrip antenna at the resonance frequency and its adjacent frequencies. The proposed antenna's impedance is 5.15-5.85 GHz. In this bandwidth, the radiation pattern is stable; the cross polarization and back lobe are −30 dB and −20 dB, respectively. The error in the impedance bandwidth is about 4.2%. The simulation and measurement results are considered satisfactory.
