This paper presents a design dual frequency
microstrip patch antenna for Global System for Mobile
Communication (GSM) application that is able to cater both
narrowband frequency of 900 MHz and 1800 MHz. The antenna
was printed on the 80 × 120 mm2 Flame Retardant fiber glass
epoxy (FR-4) substrate and copper conductor. A microstrip
patch antenna is widely recognizes because of light weight, low
manufacturing cost, thin profile and easy to fabricate since it has
the capability to fit in with the other integrated circuitry. Hence,
numerous Radio Frequency (RF) engineers have opted for
microstrip patch to design their antennas depending on the
specifications and applications needed. The designs and
simulations were done by using Computer Simulation
Technology (CST) Studio Suite 2016. The design processes were
first started with the highest frequency band, 1800 MHz using
inset feed technique at the center of the antenna patch followed
by Steps and Cuts Method for the lowest frequency band of 900
MHz to the initial design. The straight and L-shaped cuts were
adopted from the bottom of the patch towards the inset feed for
the second method. The fabricated antenna was tested on
Advantest Network Analyzer and the result was compared to the
one simulated on CST earlier. Lastly, both performance of each
antenna was analyzed by observing the S11 and VSWR plots to
see if the peak drop of dedicated frequency is below -20dB and
within the frequency range of GSM900 and GSM1800. The result
of the finalized design antenna was at 904 MHz and 1748 MHz
with magnitude of -32.29 dB and -22.94 respectively. |
