Abstract

This chapter presents a basic design of a microstrip patch antenna that will fit the requirement of narrowband internet of things applications. The proposed antenna has a wideband characteristics operational performance with below -20 dB return loss as a requirement. The frictional bandwidth of the proposed antennas is about 26.98%. The proposed antenna can be utilized for GPS applications at 1575 MHz, and the proposed antenna has positive gain at E & H – planes to have good radiation patterns. The performance behavior of the proposed antennas has been analyzed by high frequency structural simulation (HFSS).

Proposed Antenna Design

This antenna is designed at 1730 MHz for the narrow band internet of things applications. To resonate any antenna the important is the length and width dimensions of the modeling antenna. In this chapter the dimensions of the antenna is 37mm x 19.78mm x 1.6 mm. The dielectric constant of the proposed antenna is 4.4 (FR4 material). The proposed antennas have been shown in Fig. 1 and its detailed dimensions are listed in table.1.
