Microstrip Patch Antenna Learning using MATLAB. Theory and Implementation (eBook)

Scientific Study from the year 2021 in the subject Engineering - Communication Technology, , course: M. Tech, language: English, abstract: Microstrip patch antenna is used to send onboard parameters of article to the ground while under operating conditions. By the study of this book we find out how to investigate a new method of teaching microstrip patch antenna design for undergraduate students by using MATLAB.

Effect of changes in basic parameter microstrip patch antenna on its radiation pattern and other parameters to study the effect of resonant frequency and substrate parameters like, relative dielectric constant, substrate thickness on the radiation parameters of bandwidth and physical dimension of the microstrip patch antenna can be determined by using GUI. In this book we develops simple CAD (GUI) formulas that describe the basic properties of microstrip patch antenna using MATLAB. By the usage of this teaching tool we can analyze the behaviour of the microstrip patch antenna and design of it for different material.

Satellite communication and wireless communication has been developed rapidly in the past decades and it has already a dramatic impact on human life. In the last few years, the development of wireless local area networks (WLAN) represented one of the principal interests in the information and communication field.

Thus, the current trend in commercial and government communication systems has been to develop low cost, minimal weight, low profile antennas that are capable of maintaining high performance over a large spectrum of frequencies. This technological trend has focused much effort into the design of microstrip (patch) antennas. The variety in design that is possible with microstrip antenna probably exceeds that of any other type of antenna element.

In addition, once the shape and operating mode of the patch are selected, designs become very versatile in terms of operating frequency, polarization, pattern, and impedance. They are extremely low profile, lightweight, simple and inexpensive to fabricate using modern day printed circuit board technology, compatible with microwave and millimeter-wave integrated circuits (MMIC), and have the ability to conform to planar and non planar surfaces.
