Descrição
Resumo:The aim of this work is to miniaturize a microstrip patch antenna array resonating at 10 GHz. It presents an improved method of size reduction of a microstrip antenna array with circular polarisation using Defected Ground Structure (DGS) which is used to perform serious LC resonance property in certain frequency. By integrating Defected Ground Structure elements, the resonance frequency was shifted from 10 GHz to 7.5 GHz. The proposed structure of DGS is incorporated in the ground plane of our array antenna. Prototype of the antenna was fabricated with FR4 substrate and tested. The simulation and measurement results were in good agreement.
