Introduction of microstrip antenna

Basic parameters
Design frequency
VSWR
Return loss
Bandwidth
Gain
Efficiency

Microstrip antenna becomes very popular due to
light weight
low cost
Small size
Ease of integration
Main disadvantage of microstrip antenna
Narrow bandwidth
Objective
Designing a microstrip antenna for wireless LAN applications
Frequency is 2.4 GHz Bandwidth of antenna used today is 7.8% over the
frequency range of 2.33GHz to 2.52GHz

material remark
Ceramic-alumina 9.5 0.0003 Low loss, high frequency
applications
Teflon 2.08 0.0004 Dimensional stability is poor
FR4 4.4 0.02 Inexpensive, use for
commercial application

conclusion:
comparing the bandwidth of different thickness of slots and different
length of slots.
work to be done till p3
with respect to thickness and length comparison, choose
those antenna whose bandwidth should be greater than
15% and compatible to wireless LAN
