Design of Microstrip Patch Antenna For Wireless Applications
• To design and implement this antenna using the software CST Studio.
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.
Antenna characteristics
• Power gain
• Directivity
• Antenna radiation patterns
• Polarization
• Bandwidth
• Input Impedence
Overview of Micro-Strip Antenna
• Developed after revolution in Electronic Circuit Miniaturization &
LSI in 1970.
• Used on rockets & missiles previously.
• Designer’s choice.
What is Micro-strip Patch 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.
• Invented by Bob Munson in 1972 (but earlier work by Dechamps goes
back to1953).
