Microstrip Patch Antenna : Analysis of Surface Area for Bandwidth Improvement

A rectangular Microstrip patch antenna with edge feeding technique is presented in this paper. The H-shape patch antenna has wide bandwidth and high Gain. The surface area plays a major role in bandwidth of any antenna. This paper describes the comparison of the increase in the bandwidth with the increase in the surface area of the patch. A novel H-shaped patch antenna suitable for wireless and satellite communications is presented. This paper presents the dual U slot H-shaped microstrip patch antenna feed by transmission line. The decrease in the prices of handheld devices and services has made available on the move internet and web services facility to the customers, small antennas requirement are increasing. In this paper H-shaped patch antenna is designed using FR4 substrate. The proposed modified H shaped antenna is designed and simulated using HFSS and caters to various wireless applications such as WiMAX, Wi-Fi, UMTS and Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) e.g. T V, etc.
