Design and Implementation of Microstrip Patch Antenna (MPA) for Wireless Communication

A study on the modelling of microstrip patch antenna (MPA) is carried out, designed and implemented by simulation using computer simulation technology (CST) software. The MPA with single band of 2.4 GHz, fabricated on the FR-4 substrate of dielectric permittivity of 4.3 and achieved a gain of 4.03 dB, 1.66 dB and 2.89 dB respectively for rectangular MPA, square MPA and circular MPA. The experimental results obtained by simulation in terms of Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), gain and return loss for the proposed MPA is presented and finally it is inferred that the rectangular MPA has high gain compared to other designs.
