Inset Fed Microstrip Patch Antenna for X-Band Applications

Author : Pradeep H S 1

Date of Publication :19th July 2018

Abstract: Microstrip antennas play an important role in RF Communication. They are available in different configurations for various applications. In this paper, the patch antenna with inset feed configuration is designed which works at 10GHz frequency mainly for X-band communication. The antenna is designed using HFSS tool to determine its dimensions and evaluate performance parameters. The antenna substrate thickness is 1.588mm RT Duroid with a dielectric constant of 2.2. The antenna performance parameters such as return loss, VSWR, gain, directivity, bandwidth are found in the simulation.
