Bridged ‘V’-shaped patch antenna for dual-band communication

2015

In this article, shorting posts at the tips of a probe fed V‐shaped patch antenna is used for dual band communication. Measurements are performed for shorting posts placed at different distances from the tip of the arm and are compared with the V‐patch without shorting posts. The measured results show good return loss performance in the C‐ and X‐band. Radiation pattern in the broadside direction is observed for the lower resonant frequency whereas it tilts away from the broadside for the upper resonant frequency. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Design of a dual band V‐shaped patch antenna using shorting posts

2015

“…A tunable antenna provides an alternative to a broadband antenna in which an antenna with a small band width is tuned over a frequency range. Numerous applications such as satellite links, wireless local area networks, cellular telephony, synthetic aperture radars, and radio frequency identification systems require dual‐frequency antennas . Dual‐band characteristics with wide bandwidth in the upper band have been reported with two 100‐µm slits and with elevated radiating edges .…”

Planar patch antenna with 100‐μm slit for size reduction and dual‐band applications

Bordoloi

et al. 2014

Planar patch antenna with a 100-mm slit parallel to radiating edge is designed resulting in significant size reduction of 76% and dual-frequency operation. Tuning in the frequency range of 2.33-2.78 GHz is achieved for the lower operating frequency by introducing partial slit of varying lengths with comparable size reduction. The upper resonant frequency is higher than the resonant frequency of the simple patch by about 15-20% which is also tunable in the frequency range of 4.9-5.11 GHz, albeit not independently of the lower frequency.

“…A profiled microstrip antenna with slits and profiled outer sections is designed to operate simultaneously in the C-and X-bands with wideband characteristics. Most of the previous efforts in improving bandwidth performance and dual frequency operation are confined to modifications and additions to the pla-nar profile in microstrip antennas which have their own advantages [1][2][3][4] or using coupling mechanism [5]. There are some reported works on profiling [6] to obtain dual band operation.…”

Broad band microstrip antenna with 100 μM slits on elevated edges for C‐ and X‐band communication

Bordoloi

et al. 2013

In the present work, a rectangular microstrip patch antenna having 100 μm slits on the conductor parellel to and 2.5 mm from the radiating edges on both sides is designed.The conductor sections from the slits to the outer edges are elevated at an angle from the conductorplane. Prominent return loss peaks are obtained at 4.23 GHz and 10.26 GHz with return losses of −36 dB and −32 dB, respectively. A large frequency envelope with at least −10 dB return loss in the range 6.84 GHz to 9.24 GHz for elevation angle 65° and 8.45 GHz to 10.54 GHz for elevation angle 85° are obtained. The frequencies can be varied by changing the elevation angles. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Microwave Opt Technol Lett 55:1285–1287, 2013; View this article online at wileyonlinelibrary.com.
