Abstract
AbstractA triple-band microstrip patch antenna designed for the IEEE 802.16e WiMAX, IEEE 802.11a WLAN, C-band downlink communications, and Ku-band radar recent applications is suggested in this article. The planned antenna operates at 2.45, 6, and 14 GHz resonant frequencies. The antenna fulfilled triple-band physical characteristics covering industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) bands between (2.1–2.8) GHz; (5.6–6.5) GHz for wireless local area network (WLAN) or ultra-wideband (UWB) services; and 12.7–16 GHz for future two-way 5G:6G either broadcasting or mobile satellite communications. To achieve better return loss performance, parametric studies are carried out using Microwave Studio (CST MWS). The proposed antenna is designed on the FR4 as a hosting medium of total size 46 × 38 × 1.6 mm3, combined with a planar transmission line (T.L.) feed and defected ground structure (DGS). The simulated antenna’s input reflection coefficient (S11) results and the far-field measurements show good agreement. The fabricated prototype achieves peak gain values of 2.8, 3.8, and 4.7 dBi, respectively, and bidirectional radiation characteristics. A comparative study with other recent publications is implemented to validate the consistency of the design.
