Design of Microstrip Patch Antenna for C-band Applications

Abstract

The high-frequency micro-antenna industry has grown exponentially with the tremendous advances in communications over the past few years. Where the need to provide certain types of these antennas, which are characterized by small size, high efficiency, and transmission of high frequencies has become a necessity. A microstrip patch antenna design is introduced in this study, which consists of three conductive layers, a conductive patch on one side and an insulating substrate with a ground plane on the other side. Generally, a microstrip antenna is commonly known as a “printed antenna”. Common shapes for microstrip patch antennae are square, rectangular, circular, and oval, but another scheme is permittable. A new shape of the microstrip patch antenna is designed to withstand frequencies range 5–7 GHz band with elliptical shape microstrip patch antenna having one slot in the patch, and two circle slots with one rectangle slot in the partial ground
