On the Performance of Rectangular Microstrip Patch Antenna using Rogers RT/Duriod 5880

Abstract

The widely researched area in communication systems is wireless technology. The study of communication systems is incomplete without understanding the operation of the antennas. In the recent years of development in communication systems the important needs are lightweight, compact and cost-effective antennas that are capable of maintaining high performance over a wide spectrum of frequencies. This technological trend has focused much effort into the design of a Micro strip patch antenna, because they will provide high frequency and less bandwidth. This paper presents a design and simulation of rectangular micro strip patch antenna at 2.5 GHz frequency range for wireless communication that provides a radiation pattern along a wide angle of beam. The designing process uses the Rogers RT/duriod 5880 material is used as the substrate and coaxial probe feed method is used to gives the excitation value of the antenna compare with FR4 Epoxy. This antenna has many practical applications like WLAN, WI-FI, etc. so the HFSS software is used to design and impleimplement the anten
