A compact high gain microstrip array antenna

Abstract

A low cost, compact high gain microstrip array antenna is presented and the simulation and measurement results of its performance are investigated. This antenna is realized in a commercial printed FR4 board with a permittivity of 3.99. The working frequency bandwidth is from 2.390 to 2.522GHz where the return loss is less than -15dB and the peak gain of the proposed antenna achieves 15.62dBi at 2.483GHz. The proposed antenna can be used for WLAN applications.
