3. INTRODUCTION
Antennas are key components of any wireless system.
An antenna is a device that transmits and/or receives electromagnetic waves.
Most antennas are resonant devices, which operate efficiently over a relatively narrow
frequency band.
An antenna must be tuned to the same frequency band that the radio system to which
it is connected operates in, otherwise reception and/or transmission will be impaired.
4. How does an antenna work ?
Antenna is one type of transducer that converts the
electrical energy into the electro-magnetic energy in
form of electromagnetic waves.
Antennas are required by any radio receiver or
transmitter to couple its electrical connection to the
electromagnetic field.

What is Micro-strip Antenna ?
In its most basic form, a Microstrip patch antenna consists of a radiating
patch on one side of a dielectric substrate which has a ground plane
on the other side.
Invented by Bob Munson in 1972 (but earlier work by Dechamps goes
back to1953).

9. Basic Principles of Operation
The patch acts approximately as a resonant cavity (short
circuit walls on top and bottom, open-circuit walls on the
sides).
In a cavity, only certain modes are allowed to exist, at
different resonant frequencies.
If the antenna is excited at a resonant frequency, a strong
field is set up inside the cavity, and a strong current on the
(bottom) surface of the patch. This produces significant
radiation (a good antenna).
10. Micro-strip Line Feed.
A conducting strip is connected to the edge
of the patch. The feed can be etched on the
substrate.
Capacitive Feeding
In this type of feeding the feeding
is done to small another patch
instead of main radiating patch.
Feed Techniques
Micro-strip antenna can be feed by variety of methods. This methods can be classified into
two categories-contacting and non-contacting. The foremost popular feed techniques used
are :
11. The Coaxial feed or probe feed is a very common technique used for
feeding Microstrip patch antennas.
The center conductor of the coaxial connecter is soldered to the patch.
Coaxial Feeding
12. Advantages of Micro-strip Patch Antenna
Light weight and low volume.
Low profile planar configuration which can be easily made conformal to host surface.
Low fabrication cost, hence can be manufactured in large quantities.
Supports both, linear as well as circular polarization.
Can be easily integrated with microwave integrated circuits (MICs).
Capable of dual and triple frequency operations.
Mechanically robust when mounted on rigid surfaces.
Useful in aircraft, satellites and missile applications
13. Disadvantages
Narrow bandwidth
Low efficiency
Low Gain
Extraneous radiation from feeds and junctions
Poor end fire radiator except tapered slot antennas
Low power handling capacity.
Surface wave excitation.
14. Applications
Used in mobile satellite communication system.
Used in aircraft , spacecraft & missiles
Direct broad cast television(DBS).
GPS system.
Telemetry & telemedicine
Radar application
Remedies
Low power and low gain can overcome by arrays configuration.
Surface wave associated limitations such as poor efficiency,increased mutual coupling,
reduced gain and radiation pattern can overcome.
The band width can increase up to 60% by using some special techniques.
15. Software Used To Design Micro-strip Patch
Antenna
HFSS is commercial finite element method
solver for electromagnetic structures from
Ansys Corp.
HFSS stands for High Frequency
Structural Simulator.
It is one of the several commercial tools
used for antenna design .
Its gold-standard accuracy, advanced solver
and compute technology have made it an
essential tool for engineers designing high-
frequency and high-speed electronics
components.
16. SIMULATED RESULTS IN HFSS
When we completed the design part of the proposed antenna we got the simulated results of
the antenna which includes return loss (S11 parameter), VSWR, 2D radiation pattern as well as
3D radiation pattern.
S11 Parameter:
20. Conclusion
The simulation of microstrip patch antenna is carried out.
The substrate and patches are created.
The radiation pattern are observed. Rectangular patch antenna at 2.4 GHz is designed on
Ansoft HFSS , dielectric constant = 4.4 and height 2mm
The designed antenna is suitable for Mobile Communication, Cell Phone Antennas etc.
The simulation gave results good enough to satisfy our requirements to fabricate it on
hardware which can be used wherever needed.
