High gain rectangular microstrip array antenna design at 2.6GHz

Abstract

In this study, especially the ability to be used in WiMAX applications , high-gain microstrip line feed 2 × 1 patch array antenna design work was done. Antenna simulation of this antenna design made using HFSS 3D gain and directivity characteristics were simulated. Since antenna impedance is greater than line impedance, impedance matching has been made with inset - fed microstrip line and thequarter-wavetransformer. The results show that the proposed antenna parameters are sufficient for WiMAX applications.
