Abstract:
A new compact microstrip antenna element is analyzed.
The analysis can accurately predict the resonant frequency,
input impedance, and radiation patterns. The predicted results
are compared with experimental results and excellent agreement
is observed . These antenna elements are more suitable in applications
where limited antenna real estate is available

Abstract:
A new dual port microstrip antenna geometry for dual frequency
operation is presented. The structure consists of the intersection
of two circles of the same radius with their centres displaced by a
small fraction of the wavelength . This antenna provides wide
impedance bandwidth and excellent isolation between its ports.
The gain of the antenna is comparable to that of a standard
circular microstrip antenna operating at the same resonant
frequency. A theoretical analysis for calculating the resonant
frequencies of the two ports is also presented

Abstract:
A new microstrip antenna geometry with considerable reduction
in size, with similar radiation characteristics to those of an
equivalent rectangular patch antenna is proposed. A relationship
has been suggested for fmding out the resonant frequency of the
new geometry, and its validity has been established by the
experimental results. Without increasing the aperture area, this
geometry also offers a facility for considerably reducing the
resonant frequency compared to conventional patches.

Abstract:
compact multihand planar octagonal-shaped microstrip
antenna simultaneously suitable for mobile communication and blue
tooth application is presented. The antenna provides sufficient isolation
benveen the two operating bands and an area reduction of -29 % with
respect to a circular patch operating in the same band
A simple approach for accurate
determination of the resonant frequencies of
microstrip antennas of regular geometries is
developed and presented. In this approach, a
generalised empirical formula for the
computation of effective dielectric permittivity is
given which takes into account the ratio of the
fringing area to the area of the patch. A
correction to the equivalent side length of an
equilateral triangular patch, previously published,
is modified and a new formula is given. A
correction to the effective dimensions of an
elliptical microstrip antenna is also carried out.
Numerical results obtained for the resonant
frequencies of elliptical, circular, rectangular and
equilateral-triangular microstrip antennas are in
good agreement with the available theoretical and
experimental results reported by others. The
present approach is more efficient, simpler and
more accurate

An electromagnetically coupled T-shaped microstrip feed
used to enhance the impedance bandwidth of a rectangular microstrip
antenna is reported. The proposed antenna offers a 2:1 VSWR bandwidth
of -36% with an increase in gain of 0.8 dB
