Designing problems of antennas integrated with solar batteries

Abstract

Designing problems of microstrip antennas placed on the solar battery surface and using it as a substrate are considered. Computational models taking into account the elements of its costruction and parameters of solar battery were performed by means of ANSYS HFSS. A number of numerical experiments for several antenna models were fulfilled. The aim of them is to design microstrip antenna integrated with solar battery without decreasing of solar elements effectiveness. The results of numerical experiments for several projects of microwave radiators with solid or mesh surface of the patch are presented
