Abstract-In this paper two novel antennas, suitable for access and backhaul links, are designed, fabricated and tested for a Relay Station in a WiMAX wireless network. A single modified E-shaped patch antenna is described, presenting 10 dB gain over 12.4% bandwidth. This antenna element is used for the design of a 4 × 4 planar array which provides experimental gain of 21.2 dB. The antenna system on the Relay Station operates at 3.4 GHz and includes one single antenna element for access link realization and an antenna array for the backhaul link realization. These antennas are installed in two configuration arrangements and tested in terms of their radiation performances and coupling effects. The simulated and measured results are quite satisfactory and in good agreement at which the maximum coupling between the access and backhaul antennas is found below −25 dB for all tested cases.

“…However, despite of these several advantages, the microstrip anten-nas suffers from some disadvantages of narrow bandwidth and low efficiency. Various researches have been made to increase the bandwidth of Microstrip antennas, which includes increase of the substrate thickness, the use of a low dielectric constant, slotted patch antennas, introducing the parasitic elements either in coplanar or stacked configuration, the use of various impedance matching and feeding techniques [3][4][5][6][7][8]. The dielectric constant of the substrate is closely related to the size and the bandwidth of the microstrip antenna.…”

A novel compact broadband microstrip patch antenna is presented for various wireless applications. The proposed antenna has been fabricated and the impedance bandwidth and radiation pattern are measured. The simulated and measured antenna characteristics along with radiation pattern and gain are presented. It is stated that the proposed designed antenna can completely cover the required band widths of Digital communication system (DCS 1.71-1.88 GHz), Personal communication system (PCS 1.85-1.88 GHz) and IEEE 802.11b/g (2.4-2.485 GHz) with satisfactory radiation characteristics. The Experimental result shows that the proposed antenna presents a bandwidth 60.25% covering the range of 1.431-2.665 GHz with the maximum radiation efficiency 90%.
