A new artificial neural-network-based methodology for a microstrip antenna design was studied and presented. The methodology is applicable to DCS, GSM, WLL, WLAN, large band planar antennas, and fractals.

A modified PSO technique using heterogeneous boundary conditions for broadband compact microstrip antenna designing

A modified particle swarm optimization (PSO) variant is implemented on a conventionally optimized broadband antenna. Proposed algorithm uses heterogeneous boundary conditions to particles that fly out of the search space. Search space boundary conditions were chosen depending on which bound was violated. The algorithm is executed using MATLAB for the PSO computations and IE3D. Microstrip antennae inherently suffer from low bandwidth. Thus, a broadband patch antenna is optimized to improve the antenna return loss bandwidth in order to validate the proposed algorithm. For the patch antenna, a significant 12 % bandwidth improvement and 20.84 % size reduction was achieved. It was fabricated and satisfactory conformity was found with simulated results.

High-gain compact circularly polarised microstrip antenna

Design of a high gain, small microstrip antenna with circular polarisation (CP) radiation is demonstrated. The small size of the microstrip antenna results from both the high-permittivity superstrate loading and the slits cut in the patch. In addition, the antenna gain is enhanced by setting the superstrate thickness at about one-quarter of the wavelength in the superstrate layer. A typical design with a 30%, decrease in antenna size and a 5.2 dB increase in antenna gain, as compared to the conventional CP design, is presented and analysed

Slot-coupled microstrip antenna for broadband circular polarisation

A microstrip antenna with broadband circular polarisation (CP) is presented. The proposed microstrip antenna has a circular patch and is excited by a series microstrip-line-feed configuration through the coupling of a ring slot in the ground plane. The broadband operation is achieved by coupling two CP resonant elements, which are due to the circular patch and the ring slot, respectively. A typical prototype using foam material of thickness 5 mm as the antenna substrate is constructed. Measured results show the 3 dB-axial-ratio bandwidth centred at 2500 MHz is more than 10%.     

Effect of various meandering slots in rectangular microstrip antenna ground plane for compact broadband operation

The study of the effect of various meandering slots in the rectangular microstrip antenna ground plane for compact broadband operation is presented. The rectangular microstrip antenna is meandered using three different types of ground plane meandering slots: (a) smaller meandering slots, (b) longer meandering slots, and (c) open-end meandering slots, and is studied experimentally and compared. In these meandering slots, the open-end meandering slot is proved to be effective in significantly enhancing the bandwidth of a compact meandered antenna. Using open-end meandering slots in the ground plane, an extreme compactness of 83% with a broad bandwidth of 38.3% is obtained.
