Micro-strip Patch Antenna
What is Micro-strip Antenna ?
A Micro-strip patch antenna
consists of a radiating patch
on one side of a dielectric
substrate which has a ground
plane on the other side.
•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.
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 :-
O Micro-strip line.
O Co-axial probe
O Aperture coupling
O Proximity coupling
Software used to design Micro-strip
Patch Antenna
OHFSS is commercial finite element
Omethod solver for electromagnetic
OStructures.from Anasys Corp.
OHFSS stands for High Frequency
OStructural Simulator. It is one of
the
OSeveral commercial tools used for
Oantenna design . It was developed
Oby Prof. Zontal Cendes and his
Ostudents at Carnegie Mellon Univ.
Oin the year 1989.
The Design Specifications:-
• Dielectric constant(εr)=
2.2 ≤ εr≤ 12.
•Frequency (fr) = 1.85 to
1.90 GHz
•Height (h) = 0.003
λo≤h≤0.05 λo
• Velocity of light (c) =
3×10^8 ms-1 .
•Practical width (W) = W<
λo , , where λo is the free-
space wavelength
•Practical Length (L) =
0.3333λo< L < 0.5 λo
Calculation of Parameters:-
= 10.7611
c= 3x108 m/sec
therefore , the value of is 24.7 mm & value of L will be 23.36
mm.

APPLICATIONS
• The use of micro-strip
antennas for integrated
phased array systems.
• Used in GPS (Sat.
Navigational System)
technology.
• Mobile satellite
communications, the
Direct Broadcast Satellite
(DBS) system & remote
sensing.
• Non-satellite based
applications- such as
medical hyperthermia.
CONCLUSION
OThe design of patch
antenna using ANSOFT
HFSS Software has been
shown here. Our project
on Design of Microstrip
Antenna which is based
on Microstrip Feed Line
Technique.
OMany more design
options and impletation
techniques are available.
