Broadband, high gain slot loaded square microstrip array antenna

A novel two‐element right angle slot loaded square microstrip array antenna (TESMAA) is presented for 52.18% of bandwidth and 11.22 dB of gain. The effect of different slots placed in the ground plane is studied for enhancing the bandwidth and gain. It is found that when bow‐tie slot is placed in th...

Zusammenfassung:A novel two‐element right angle slot loaded square microstrip array antenna (TESMAA) is presented for 52.18% of bandwidth and 11.22 dB of gain. The effect of different slots placed in the ground plane is studied for enhancing the bandwidth and gain. It is found that when bow‐tie slot is placed in the ground plane of TESMAA the antenna gives maximum 95.54% of bandwidth and 15.92 dB of gain without affecting the nature of broad side radiation characteristics. The design concepts of antennas are described and experimental results are discussed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
