Abstract

Microstrip antennas are currently popular because they have the advantage and meet the demand for small and lightweight antennas so that they are compatible and easy to integrate. This study aims to design an antenna microstrip rectangular 1x2 array, a rectangular patch microstrip antenna consisting of two elements. The antenna has a patch size of 19.5 mm x 26.5 mm array 1x2 with a frequency of 3.5 GHz. The antenna design is made in a simulation that works at a frequency of 3.5 GHz, and the substrate material is made of FR 4, which has a constant (ε r of) of 4.3, while patch materials are made of copper. Calculating the value of the initial antenna parameters will be optimized by sweeping the parameters to obtain the desired return loss, VSWR, gain, bandwidth, and directivity. The results of optimization of the rectangular microstrip antenna design 1x2 array work at a frequency of 3.5 GHz with a return loss -12.54 dB in the frequency range 3. 47 GHz up to 3.53 GHz, bandwidth 66.5 MHz, VSWR value of 1.6 and produce a gain of 5.5 dB.
