    How does an antenna work ?

    Antenna is one type oftransducer that converts theelectrical energy into theelectro-magnetic energy in

    form of electromagneticwaves.

    Antennas are required byany radio receiver ortransmitter to couple itselectrical connection to theelectromagnetic field.

    Micro-strip Patch Antenna

    What is Micro-strip Antenna ?

    A Micro-strip patch antenna

    consists of a radiating patch

    on one side of a dielectric

    substrate which has a groundplane on the other side.

    Invented by Bob Munson

    in 1972 (but earlier workby Dechamps goes back

    to1953).

    OW = Width of the Micro-strip Patch Element

    Ot= Thickness of Patch

    Oh = Height of the DielectricSubstrate.

    Basic Principles of Operation

    The patch acts approximatelyas a resonant cavity (shortcircuit walls on top and

    bottom, open-circuit walls onthe sides).

    In a cavity, only certainmodes are allowed to exist, atdifferent resonant frequencies.

    If the antenna is excited at aresonant frequency, a strongfield is set up inside thecavity, and a strong current onthe (bottom) surface of the

    patch. This producessignificant radiation (a goodantenna).

    Advantages of Micro-strip Patch

    Antenna

    Light weight and low volume.

    Low profile planar configuration which can be easily made

    conformal to host surface. Low fabrication cost, hence can be manufactured in large

    quantities.

    Supports both, linear as well as circular polarization.

    Can be easily integrated with microwave integrated circuits

    (MICs).

    Capable of dual and triple frequency operations.

    Mechanically robust when mounted on rigid surfaces.

    Disadvantages:-

    Narrow bandwidth

    Low efficiency

    Low Gain

    Extraneous radiation from feeds and junctions

    Poor end fire radiator except tapered slot antennas

    Low power handling capacity.

    Surface wave excitation.

    Feed Techniques:-Micro-strip antenna can be feed by variety of methods.

    This methods can be classified into two categories-

    contacting and non-contacting. The foremost popularfeed techniques used are :-

    O Micro-strip line.

    O Co-axial probe

    O Aperture couplingO Proximity coupling

    Software used to design Micro-strip

    Patch Antenna

    OHFSS is commercial finite element

    Omethod solver for electromagnetic

    O

    Structures.from Anasys Corp.OHFSS stands for High Frequency

    OStructural Simulator. It is one of

    the

    OSeveral commercial tools used for

    O

    antenna design . It was developedOby Prof. Zontal Cendes and his

    Ostudents at Carnegie Mellon Univ.

    Oin the year 1989.
