Abstract

A small size printed patch antenna to cover applications of X and Ku band is suggested in this paper. The suggested antenna consists of an arrow shaped patch on front view of FR 4 substrate and a partial ground on the other side. Initial design started with a rectangular patch of dimensions 10.7 mm x 7 mm. Then it is modified into arrow shaped patch in order to improve the reflection coefficient at lower and higher frequencies.The measurement of the antenna is 12 x 15 x 1.6 mm3. The antenna parameters are optimized using FEM based HFSS software. The operating range of frequencies include from 6.75 GHz to 18.96 GHz. The proposed antenna displays a good omnidirectional radiation pattern and maximum gain of 7.41 dBi at 17 GHz. Simulated S11 parameters, VSWR, gain, and current distributions are offered in this paper, and S11 simulated parameters are in good agreement with measured parameters.
