Feed analysis of microstrip antenna for UWB communication

In current trend, modern wireless technologies are being implemented with Wi-Fi technology. The technology makes it possible for the user to connect to the internet though wireless connection. That makes the wide use of Microstrip Patch Antennas in various applications, due to their low profile, conformability, easy realization. In this paper, an attempt has been made to design the Feed of Microstrip antenna structure and analyse for UWB Wireless application using Ansoft-HFSS v13. This is mostly due to their versatility in terms of possible geometries which makes these applicable for different situations. This antenna has a low profile configuration with excellent radiation pattern. Compared to the centre-fed patch antenna (CPA), the proposed antenna has a large bandwidth and similar radiation pattern. It has been tested for Centre-fed Rectangular Patch Antenna as well as Probe-fed Rectangular Patch Antenna. The result shows its efficacy.
