Design of multi-band antenna with cut slots and parasitic patch for wireless communication

Abstract

A compact Design of Multi-Band Antenna With Cut Slots and Parasitic Patch for super high frequencies (SHF) in C band, S band and X band applications is proposed. The proposed antenna fabricated on a FR-4 substrate with dimensions 44.450 mm (L) × 55.60 mm (W) × 1.6 mm (h), relative permittivity εr =4.3 and loss tangent δ = 0.025. The proposed antenna is designed by etching rectangular cut at center and faces of patch with inset feed. CST microwave studio suite software used to simulate and measurement of fabricated design is done on VNA. The proposed multiband antenna can be used for Satellite Communications, ITU band, WLAN, IEEE 802.11a system, Aeronautical Radio navigation and Maritime applications.
