L / C / X Triple band compact dipole array antenna for RADAR application

Abstract

This article describes about L / C / X triple band compact dipole array antenna for RADAR communication using FR-4 Substrate. The proposed antenna is designed over a range of 1.0–10.0 GHz. The objective of the paper is to achieve appreciable basic antenna parameters for ease adaptation in Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMIC) Technology. It is able to preserve its high recital over RADAR Communication system operating at Triple band (L, C, X – band) microwave frequency range. The proposed structure resonates at L / C / X Microwave bands and thus the antenna becomes inevitability for numerous wireless applications. The antenna is fictitious on a substrate with height of 1.6 mm, length 48mm, width 60mm and a relative permittivity of 4.2. The proposed antenna yields a VSWR of about 1.74 (1.70 GHz), 1.66 (6.70 GHz), 1.26 (8.30 GHz) and gain of 2.56 dBi (1.70 GHZ), 1.78 dBi (6.70 GHz) and 3.94 dBi (8.30 GHz) under simulation. The antenna is designed and simulated using HFSS, which helps to obtain the antenna parameters such as VSWR, gain and Return loss.
