In this paper, we have presented the simulation results of a rectangular microstrip patch antenna at terahertz (THz) frequency ranging from 0.7 to 0.85 THz. THz electromagnetic wave can permit more densely packed communication links with increased security of communication transmission. The simulated results such as gain, radiation efficiency and 10 dB impedance bandwidth of rectangular microstrip patch antenna at THz frequencies without shorting post configuration are 3.497 dB, 55.71% and 17.76%, respectively, whereas with shorting post configuration, corresponding parameters are 3.502 dB, 55.88% and 17.27%. The simulation has been performed by using CST Microwave Studio, which is a commercially available electromagnetic simulator based on the method of finite difference time domain technique.Keywords THz electromagnetic spectrum .

Abstract-In this paper, we have simulated a single-pin-shorted microstrip line fed three-dielectric-layer (with different permittivity and thickness) rectangular patch microstrip antenna for all those communication systems whose limited antenna size is premium. Low permittivity hard foam has been used as one substrate to achieve wide bandwidth. The simulation of this proposed antenna has been performed by using CST Microwave Studio, which is a commercially available electromagnetic simulator based on the finite difference time domain technique.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
