Abstract

Microstrip patch antennas are widely used for enormous wireless applications as they are very compact in size and easy to fabricate and are highly recommended for multiband applications. The antenna must be designed in such a way that a single antenna can be used for multiple applications and multiple frequency ranges with smooth shifting of operating frequency. The antenna must be a wideband such that it can witness the communication between the devices in wireless environment for various applications. This chapter brings some of the important designs which are proposed by various remarkable authors whose contribution towards the wireless communication is a state of the art. The chapter gives a clear-cut idea about how the patch has changed its directions from a traditional design to an utmost complicated yet easy to fabricate fractal in nature multiband application antenna.

Literature Review

One of the Experimental and world-wide antenna is microstrip patch antenna and many researchers have provided so many possibilities and designs for the microstrip patch antenna. Today we will provide the beauty of advancement of the microstrip and the proposed antennas by various researchers.

Let us start the discussion by bringing up the traditional micro strip patch antenna. The author (Jaiswal & Koul, 2018) suggested a basic model with RT Duroid dielectric substrate with Єr= 2.45 and 1.58mm thickness. The antenna was tested for the frequency range of 2-4GHz with resonating at 2.4GHz. The performance of the antenna has a very good impact on return losses which are around -42.154dB with a gain of 19.455 dBi. Further the author proposed that the antenna can be used for S-band applications. The patch was a basic rectangular with dimensions of 38.677mm X 46.62mm.

Moving to the next design the author (Jaiswal et al., 2018) proposed three varieties of patch for the design which were square, circle and triangle. The substrate material used was FR4-Epoxy and the size of the ground plane was 4.2956mm X 3.9186mm and was operated at the frequency of 28GHz. Return losses were around -23.09dB with a moderate gain of 2.43dB. The applications were the antennas can be used were Meteorological Aids and amateur communication, Radio Navigation and Fixed Satellite Communication.
