“…A number of analytical design approaches, including three-dimensional (3D) printing, have made it possible to study antenna system performances with great sensitivity. [5][6][7][8][9] The choice of materials to be utilized in the construction of each object is one of the crucial elements in the (3D printing) production process. Various materials exist, including polymers, ceramics, metals, and concrete, with different properties such as elastic, waterproof, shockproof, or resistant to high temperatures.…”

A simple method for creating lightweight and inexpensive microstrip patch antennas using reduced graphene oxide or acetylene black added epoxy resin was developed. The biggest goal in the method is optimizing the appropriate chemicals and production processes for producing the materials with the designed properties. Five examples of an inset‐fed microstrip patch antenna operating at approximately 2.0–12.0 GHz were designed based on the antenna‘s basic analytical formula. Their models were created in a 3D electromagnetic simulation environment. After examining the performance results of the design, the appropriate design models were produced with both 3D printer technology and wet‐chemical methods, and the experimental results were compared with the simulation results. The produced reduced graphene oxide or acetylene black added samples′ structure was illuminated with scanning electron microscope images, FTIR and Raman spectroscopy analysis. The measured S11 characteristics of the antennas provide better performance as compared to the simulated results. The measured S11 parameters for the two and three frequency bands fell substantially below −10 dB. As a result of the dielectric constants of the materials and the fabrication of the radiation plane, horizontal shifts were detected in the measurement outcomes.

Antenna is the most important thing in wireless technology. The technology of communication in this era does not only work on only one frequency, but it has many work frequency. In this research, the method that is used to create the antenna works in Multiband by using an array and slot method. Based on the result of this research, quadrilateral microstrip antenna by using 2 patches has a resonant frequency of 1,3 GHz,1,8 GHz,2,4 GHz,and 2,8 GHz. From the measurement results that is done, all antennas that resonate at that frequency has met the antenna standard which is the value of return loss less than -10 dB and VSWR less than 2, so that the antenna that has been made can work well in accordance with the function of the antenna. The slot method used in the design of microstrip antenna operates to add up the resonant frequency of the antenna and improve the value of return loss. Meanwhile, the array method that is used can add up the resonant frequency in microstrip antenna. By combining both methods in the design of quadrilateral microstrip antenna, it will generate a multiband antenna resonance frequency. AbstrakAntena merupakan bagian terpenting dalam teknologi tanpa kabel (wireless). Teknologi telekomunikasi saat ini tidak hanya bekerja pada satu frekuensi kerja saja tetapi mempunyai banyak frekuensi kerja. Pada penelitian ini metode yang digunakan untuk membuat antena bekerja di multiband dengan menggunakan metode array dan slot. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian antena mikrostrip bentuk segi empat dengan menggunakan 2 patch dihasilkan frekeunsi resonansi 1,3 GHz, 1,8 GHz, 2,4 GHz, 2,8 GHz. Dari hasil pengukuran yang dilakukan semua antena yang beresonansi difrekuensi tersebut telah memenuhi standar antena yaitu return loss kurang dari -10 dB dan VSWR kurang dari 2, sehingga antena yang sudah dibuat dapat bekerja dengan baik sesuai dengan fungsi antena. Metode slot yang digunakan pada desain antena mikrostrip berfungsi untuk menambah frekuensi resonansi antena dan memperbaiki nilai return loss,. Sedangkan metode array yang digunakan dapat menambah frekuensi resonansi pada antena mikrostrip. Dengan menggabungkan kedua metode tersebut pada desain antena mikrostrip bentuk segi empat akan memunculkan frekuensi resonansi antena yang multiband Kata kunci: Microstrip Antenna, Multiband, Array, Slot.

Multifunctional composite structures (MFCS) have become an increasingly important field of research with the large-scale adoption of composite materials in many industrial sectors such as aerospace, automotive, sport and recreation equipment (bikes, scooters, etc.) and maritime. It is a diverse field which includes scientific areas in electromagnetics, electronics, material sciences, structures and structural augmentation, sensors, and thermal management. The paper investigates Conformal Load-bearing Smart Skins (CLSS) as a part of multifunctional composite structures specifically related to aerospace applications and focuses on the seamless incorporation and synergistic coexistence between electronic devices and composite materials. Current trends in materials and manufacturing processes, as well as measurement techniques used to validate both the electromagnetic and structural responses have been explored and discussed. Furthermore, it identifies some of the challenges and complexities associated with CLSS and explores future areas of research which still need to be addressed.
