What is it about?

In this paper, different shapes of an E-patch microstrip antenna designed and operating at x- and ku-bands by using High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software version 13. The finite element method used to solve electromagnetic values. The dielectric substrate material is Arlon AD320A (tm) with dielectric constant (εr = 3.2) and thickness h=1.79 mm used in this design. The new designs including modifying and slotting E-patch increased the gain of proposed antennas and provided a dual band frequency in x- and ku- bands. The return loss, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) and radiation patterns are evaluated. …

Why is it important?

Results make proposed antennas to be suitable for radar, satellite and wireless communication application and can be fabricated easily.

Perspectives

Writing this article was a great pleasure as it has co-authors with whom I have had long standing collaborations. This article also lead to electromagntic groups contacting me and ultimately to a greater involvement in antennas research field.
