Abstract

The article investigates the performance of planar and compact CPW-fed microstrip patch antenna that offers 10 dB impedance bandwidth over the wide frequency range between 2.59 and 7.61 GHz. The parametric analysis of various design variables is included to acquire the final design of proposed antenna. The prototype exemplary of designed antenna is experimentally tested to obtain the return loss, VSWR, radiation response and gain characteristics. The close agreement is acquired between simulated and experimental results.The projected antenna has compact size of 0.61λ0 × 0.44λ0 × 0.027λ0 mm3 and offers a 10 dB wide impedance bandwidth of 5.02 GHz. Thus, it may be considered suitable for variety of wireless applications including WLAN, Wi-MAX, fixed satellite services, wireless point-to-point applications etc.
