Design and Analysis of a Microstrip-Line-Fed Printed Wide-Slot Antenna for L-Band Operation

Shirshendu Pandit; Geetali Chakrabarty; Supriya Jana

In this present work, Microstrip printed antenna loaded with symmetrically wide-slot fed by a fork like tuning stub for better improvement in the impedance bandwidth enhancement {&} reduction in the return loss at operating frequency 1.9189 GHz are proposed and experimentally investigated. The details investigations have been performed on the design of a microstrip antenna of given specifications using HFSS, an electromagnetic structure from Ansys. Here a new idea of wide slot has been used to increase the bandwidth of the antenna for L- Band operation. The resonant frequency of operation 1.9189 GHz with a return loss of -59.8373 dB. The antenna design and performs are analyzed using HFSS is a commercial finite element method solver for electromagnetic structures from Ansys.
