Yadav, Dipak K. Bhagat, Pooja Banwani, Shally Goyal(A.P.) Department of electronic and communication Engineering Amity university-m.p ABSTRACT- The performance study of rectangular micro strip patch antenna at X band frequency is presented in this paper. The resonant frequency is chosen at 10 GHz which is suitable for a variety of wireless applications. HFSS tool is used as the software environment to design and compare the performance of the antennas. It is found that the return loss of improved patch antenna is very low compare to simple rectangular patch antenna. In addition, the improved rectangular patch antenna has an improved VSWR value of 1.12 than that of the simple patch with VSWR 2.73. However, simple patch antenna with circular and rectangular slots offers about 50% higher bandwidth. I INTRODUCTION In the era of modern world where communication has become indispensable, antennas are rightly to be said as electronic eyes and ears of the world due to their undeniable place in the communication technology. While, the revolution in antenna engineering leads the fast growing communication systems, Micro strip Patch Antennas have been one of the most innovative developments in the era of miniaturization. Micro strip Patch Antennas are increasingly finding their applications in a broad range of microwave systems from radars, telemetry, navigation, biomedical systems, mobile and satellite communications, missile systems, global positioning system (GPS) for remote sensing and etc. because of their light weight, low volume, low cost, low profile, ease of fabrication, conformability to mounting hosts and ability to be printed directly onto a circuit board[1]. II THE BASIC CONCEPT Micro strip Patch antenna has various advantages. There are different types of antenna slots used with some specific feeding techniques for enhancement of antenna bandwidth. The substrate height and dielectric constant are very important factors that influence variation in bandwidth, radiation characteristics as well as surface wave minimization [5]. Thick substrate with low dielectric constant is used for miniaturization of antennas that provides better efficiency and loosely bound field for radiation in the space. Micro strip antenna has a ground plane on one side of dielectric substrate and other side has a radiating patch as shown in above fig.1.
163 Design of Rectangular Micro strip Patch Antenna with circular and rectangular slot in X Band Fig.1 Micro strip patch antenna t= thickness of patch h=height of substrate L= length of patch W= width of patch The patch is generally made of some conducting material like gold or copper and it has many shapes like rectangular, circular based on application used [3]. Dielectric constant of substrate is taken in particular range from 2.2<ε r <12. Substrate parameters such as dielectric constants, its height can be varied to obtain different return loss and ultimately increase in impedance bandwidth. Bandwidth can be increased by decreasing dielectric constant value of the substrate [1]. III.

Thus the performance of this antenna is very weak as per our requirement.

IJAEEE, Volume 3, Number 3 Priyanka Jain et al. In this paper, we have increased the performance of the antenna such as gain and return loss. We do some modification here without changing the dimension of the micro strip patch antenna. This great performance is achieved by modifying the structure of the patch antenna. The improved design gives us the return loss -24.395dB, which greatly helps to enhance the performance of the antenna so that it can be efficiently used in the application of X band.
