Subscribe/Renew Journal
The technological trend has focused to development of wide range of antennas. An antenna is a main component of communication system. A lot of innovation happens in wireless communication with different technology to development of wide range of antennas. Each antenna has its own advantages and limitations. The purpose of this paper to design aI-slot Microstrip patch antenna because they are well suited for various wireless systems due to low cost, low profile, light weight and easily fabricated on Printed Circuit Board. In this paper, simulation tool CST is used to study the performance and gain of I-slot rectangular patch antenna at 5.02 GHz frequency. Microstrip slotted patch antenna is easily fabricated and concealed within metallic objects. They are more flexible in integration with other passive and active device in a hybrid MIC and MMIC design. Furthermore it can provide covert communications with a small transmitter. We can use microstrip slotted patch antenna as an array fed by a wave guide, for radar navigational purposes and also can be used in microwave mobile. In this paper, designed antenna and its parameters such as Return Loss, VSWR, Radiation Pattern, Gain and Bandwidth are analyzed. The effect of variation of different parameters is shown on return loss of proposed antenna.
