Antenna array at 2.4 GHz for wireless LAN system using point to point communication

Abstract

This paper described the design of microstrip patch antenna array operating at 2.4 GHz for Wireless Video using point to point communication system. The array of four by four microstrip square patch antennas with inset feed technique were designed, simulated, fabricated and measured with the aid of microwave office software. The simulation and measurement results are able to operate in ISM band for point to point communication system. The four by four arrays had a return loss of -8 dB with 16% bandwidth. The gain obtained from measurement is 14 dBi with 30deg half power beamwidth (HPBW) for H plane and 28deg for E Plane.
