Design on X-band Wideband and High-gain Multi-layer Microstrip Antenna
Abstract
In this paper, a wide-band and high-gain microstrip antenna with mullti-layer microstrip patch and an aperture-coupled feeding is proposed. The antenna has a condensed structure where the dimension is about 8.5mm by 7.5mm by 4.662mm leading to good bandwidths covering 8.05 GHz to 12.01 GHz (39.48%), and the gain is up to 5.23dB. The low expenses of this profile and its simple configuration allows for an its easy fabrication, with appropriation with wireless and satellite communication.
